Yes Mika, we plan to release the white paper on our Semantic Folding Theory before the Hackathon on the 17. in a first version. It will cover mainly the theoretical background of our approach to encode text into SDRs. The intention is to help interested people to look at NLP differently from the traditional word-count statistics view. It turns out that very complex language processing can be achieved by just using a similarity measure and boolean operators. But I think we have only uncovered the peak of the iceberg and by publishing the rationale behind it, we hope to involve more people in the ongoing discovery of this information processing paradigm, based on only two fundamental principles: Semantic Folding and Sequence Learning.
