I don't know though - having still only glanced at [Hawkins's] stuff -
whether he has yet made the transition from being able to recognise a "dog"
to being able to recognize an "animal." Anyone know about this?
I'm fairly certain the answer is no -- in fact as far as I know there has
not even been a demonstration of HTM doing dog recognition (or anything
similarly complex). I believe Hawkins would likely say that the
"conceptual"
regularities for an animal concept can and will be discovered by HTM. But
no such demonstration has yet been made.
Hawkins does talk about a fairly general picture-object classifier being a
major
development goal for Numenta.
