Grid cells are a potential path to AGI. Some areas I am researching: what grid cell like representations might look like in the neocortex grid cells as eigenvectors of the successor representation grid cells as inferred global task structure that are factorized how numenta envisions grid cells in the neocortex allocentric and egocentric views with… Continue reading Grid cell research areas

The first models a human infant might create to model their world
If human mind is an autonomous interlinked model building system, then what would the first models for an infant look like? The list below is a thought experiment into what those first models would look like. Lines and edgesThey can be any lengthThey can be varying widthsNot 100% straight Eye movementCan move my eye and… Continue reading The first models a human infant might create to model their world
The human mind is an autonomous interlinked model building database of the world
My definition of intelligence has become refined over time. In my article about the the human mind being a simulation engine, I already wrote out some of the points I am going to make, but my thinking has on the topic has become more clear. The human mind is composed of tens of thousands of… Continue reading The human mind is an autonomous interlinked model building database of the world
ideas to implement a model database
Let’s use a dog as an example each model can potentially cause an agent to move or change in an imagined environment language definition is stored each model has the ability to compose with other models each model the ability to be used in other environment there are core or base models in which the… Continue reading ideas to implement a model database
Ideas on how I could help researchers
Suggest other people they could collaborate with and why Suggest refinements for their research Suggest areas that are not clear in their writing Suggest areas they can improve Suggest other directions and refinements to explore on their ideas Help collect more data Suggest related papers to look into Suggest ideas to explore for research Give… Continue reading Ideas on how I could help researchers
AGI questions
Having big questions on your mind is important. Here are my AGI questions: How can a computer represent a concept from “multiple points of view“? How could a computer represent compositionality? How could a computer represent casualty? How could a computer have a grounded/embodied representation? How could a computer represent concepts? What is the core… Continue reading AGI questions
What I am researching for traditional machine learners
One of the central goals of Artificial Intelligence research is to build computers that comprehend like humans. This would allow us to build more intelligent systems and for us to be able to communicate with computers. Its natural that the computer science industry has a strong focus on Natural Language Processing (NLP). Advanced systems like… Continue reading What I am researching for traditional machine learners
Abstract Structure Primitives
It is a fact that there are specific neurons in the retina that take in the raw input from the eye and detect specific features such as red, blue, lines,edges, and more. These features (or objects) are sent further up in the processing center of the mind to form more complex objects like buckets, cars,… Continue reading Abstract Structure Primitives
Think about death everyday
In many buddhist traditions, its encouraged to think about death on a regular basis. I remember reading from a zen book: “make sure to treat each visit with your parents as your potential last time you will see them, because eventually it surely will be.” I do think about death to help me focus on… Continue reading Think about death everyday
work reflections and quieting the mind – 22/2/19
The past 2 weeks of work have been busy at work and has caused me stress and bad sleep. So I wanted to write some notes on how to improve the situation. I do practice being present, but often times I get lazy and the practice fades away. It is supposed to be the core… Continue reading work reflections and quieting the mind – 22/2/19
