Title: A brain-inspired approach to sequence learning
This talk offers insights into cutting-edge research at the Chai of Communication Networks at FernUniversität in Hagen, focusing on advancements in brain-inspired methods and the development of GraphLearner, a neuromorphic sequence analyser and generator. Beginning with a review of previous research, including text-representing centroids and a decentralized search engine, we highlight the significance of brain-inspired approaches despite the success of conventional deep learning techniques.
Drawing from the works of Hawkins and others, we introduce the GraphLearner as a promising alternative to traditional “black box” models in deep neural networks. By employing Markov models and leveraging Bloom filters for efficient probability calculations, GraphLearner, offers enhanced explainability and adaptability. The talk delves into the architecture and functioning of GraphLearner, showcasing its performance in natural language processing tasks. Additionally, we discuss potential extensions and applications of GraphLearner in diverse domains.
