Thanks for joining @Zoey_Lee. Mark is right, HTM is very closely based on
common accepted neuroscience. If you [read our
papers](https://numenta.com/neuroscience-research/research-publications/papers/)
you will see that they cite relevant neuroscience papers that helped us
develop our theory

So I wouldn’t say it is closely based on biology, but it has taken lessons to
try to replicate similar results that are important in what makes intelligence.
But in very different ways.

I don’t quite agree with your statement. I’ve always said that
Nick, I think I follow you up until the animations. I don't understand how
either animation relates to the topic of displacement cells.

The example you referred to is a bit contrived because it is so small. In a
real space, there might be millions of distinct places you might represent,
each one of which could have a displacem
