Introduction to Discrete Cortical Circuits (DCC) | Discrete Cortical Circuits

by Jacob Everist

We’ve defined a class of algorithms called Discrete Cortical Circuits (DCC). These algorithms are modeled or inspired from the microcircuits of the brain’s cortical column. With some deliberate choices to discretize many aspects of the network, while also focusing on the assembly of neurons into a “block” or “group” as a fundamental unit of computation, DCCs become very unlike classical artifical neural networks.

I just converted my original front page content to a “blog post” on the main site. Here it will autocreate a new discussion thread for each new blog post and allow people to comment on it.

I had a discussion with @dmac on this feature so other people can collaborate and run their own research blogs.
