Abstract
A Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) network has at least first nodes and a second node at a higher level than the first nodes. The second node provides an inter-node feedback signal to the first nodes for grouping patterns and sequences (or co-occurrences) in input data received at the first nodes at the first nodes. The second node collects forward signals from the first nodes; and thus, the second node has information about the grouping of the patterns and sequences (or co-occurrences) at the first nodes. The second node provides inter-node feedback signals to the first nodes based on which the first nodes may perform the grouping of the patterns and sequences (or co-occurrences) at the first nodes.
