Thanks, Fergal. One clarification: I think Chetan mentioned this in the video but perhaps it wasn't clearly noted. There already is a working implementation of the RDSE in NuPIC, so you could compare the two implementations if you want. We have been using it effectively in Grok for a month or so now.
I do think trying to do a non-uniform adaptive encoder with RDSE concepts would be a really cool project! --Subutai On Sun, Feb 16, 2014 at 7:57 AM, Fergal Byrne <[email protected]>wrote: > HI Chetan, > > That's brilliant to hear, congrats and enjoy!
