Holographic Memory Storage and Recall

   One of the side projects I research beyond my connectomic engineering is using holographic memory as a means to simulate storage and recall similar to cortical storage. 

I wrote this simple program found at:

    Interintel/Holographic-Memory: Programs that show the use of Holographic Memory for intelligence


that allows a user to draw a shape, label the shape and store that shape with its label. Then later, the user can draw a shape and ask the system to recall what the newly drawn shape is. It works pretty well, at least well enough to be recognized along animal level memory and recall. 

What it does:

  1. Opens a drawing window.
  2. You draw a shape with your cursor.
  3. Type a label like square, circle, triangle, etc.
  4. Click Save Shape + Label.
  5. It stores the shape and label in: dynamic_holographic_shape_memory.npz

The next levels would be:

  • Test Invariance
  • Turn this into a more dynamical system by adding vision via cameras and perhaps audio for "labeling" to allow the system to continuously add and digest its environment.

Building a Holographic Digit Classifier with NumPy and MNIST

Image
 In this post, we’ll explore how to build a simple, yet powerful, holographic memory system to classify handwritten digits from the popular MNIST dataset . Using NumPy , we’ll create a system that represents digits as holographic encodings —dense vector representations—and compares new images using cosine similarity . This approach draws inspiration from vector symbolic architectures (VSAs) and holographic reduced representations (HRRs) used in associative memory and cognitive modeling. 📦 Step 1: Organizing the Dataset Assume you have MNIST digit data where each digit ( 0 to 9 ) is stored in its own folder. Each image has been preprocessed and saved as a .npy file (a NumPy array), possibly as a vector encoding or 2D array. Folder structure: python-repl Copy Edit /mnist_vectors/ ├── 0/ │ ├── img_0.npy │ └── ... ├── 1/ │ └── ... ... ├── 9/ 🧪 Step 2: Create the Holographic Memory File We’ll create a single file ( digit_holograms.npz ) that stores a prototype ve...

Artificial Connectomes

Image
  From the movie Young Frankenstein                 "Abbey Normal" is of course the perfect scenario of what we do not want to do. To illustrate further, I would start the C elegans emulation and let the robot wander around the house, sometimes for an hour or so. Just let it go. I liken it much like a Cat in that it would explore and do its own thing. One day my wife started calling it and the robot stated to come towards her. To her, calling it made it come to her but to me, I knew what was really happening in that she was activating the sound sensor which in turn was stimulating the food sensory neurons so the robot thought she was food. Not sure this would be the desired effects we would want to occur. Other animal connectomes will most likely give us a number of undesired effects. The obvious consequence to connectomic emulation in the movies around Frankenstein is that if we use a criminal brain, we end up with a criminal. To understand...

AI Review of "Emulating Connectomics, animal and artificial, to develop Biological Machine Intelligence"

  This is an AI review of a paper I just basically wrote jotting down some thoughts. I actually liked the review and the criticisms were valid. Thank you Academia.edu for doing this. Here is the review: Academia.edu Review In reviewing the paper titled "Emulating Connectomics, animal and artificial, to develop Biological Machine Intelligence," I find the proposed framework for Biological Machine Intelligence (BMI) to be an ambitious and innovative direction that could potentially expand our understanding of artificial intelligence by leveraging biological principles. The work intends to bridge the gap between computational neuroscience and artificial intelligence, promising adaptability and efficient learning in artificial systems. This paper's contribution is vital in the ongoing discourse surrounding Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and its viability. Overview The manuscript explores the concept of Biological Machine Intelligence, advocating for the use of artifici...
