Numenta Research VP Subutai Ahmad Will Speak on the Principles of Machine Intelligence at Data Science Summit 2016Numenta VP of Research Subutai Ahmad will be a featured speaker at the upcoming Data Science Summit North America 2016 in San Francisco. The theme of the 5th annual summit for business and academic leaders is "Innovators Building Intelligent Applications." Ahmad is scheduled to speak on "Understanding Cortical Principles and Building Intelligent Machines." Ahmad is a major contributor to Numenta's pioneering advances in the development of machine intelligence technology alongside the company's co-founder Jeff Hawkins. In his talk, Ahmad will describe the principles for building biologically inspired intelligent systems and how computer scientists can translate them into working systems. "The brain is the best example of an intelligent system. At Numenta we believe it provides the perfect roadmap for building intelligent machines - machines that will make possible a new generation of capabilities not possible with today's technology, " said Ahmad. Who: Subutai Ahmad, VP of Research, Numenta, Inc. What: Data Science Summit US 2016 When: 2:30 - 2:55 p.m., Wednesday July 13, 2016 Where: Grand Ballroom - the Fairmont Hotel, San Francisco Numenta executives will also be discussing Numenta technology and demonstrating current applications at the summit, including the new HTM Studio tool. HTM Studio is a desktop tool that provides an easy way for developers and businesses to try Numenta's HTM (Hierarchical Temporal Memory) machine intelligence algorithms to find anomalies in streaming data. Look for Numenta at table #4. Coming up next In other upcoming events, Numenta research engineer Yuwei (News - Alert) Cui will be speaking on July 26 in Vancouver, Canada at the IEEE World Congress of Computational Intelligence 2016 on "A comparative study of HTM and other neural network models for online sequence learning with streaming data." During that event, Numenta also will be sponsoring a Numenta Anomaly Benchmark competition in association with IEEE (News - Alert). About Numenta Founded in 2005, Numenta has developed a cohesive theory, core software technology, and numerous applications all based on principles of the neocortex. Laying the groundwork for the new era of machine intelligence, this technology is ideal for large-scale analysis of continuously streaming data sets and excels at modeling and predicting patterns in data. Numenta has also developed a suite of demonstration applications that utilize its flexible and generalizable HTM learning algorithms to provide solutions that encompass the fields of machine generated data, human behavioral modeling, geo-location processing, semantic understanding and sensory-motor control. In addition, Numenta has created NuPIC (Platform for Intelligent Computing) as an open source project. Numenta is based in Redwood City, California. To learn more about HTM go to www.numenta.com.
