Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 9:
10. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising:
a processor; and
a memory operably coupled to the processor, the memory storing an instance of a first processing node, the first processing node configured to:
obtain a series of sparse distributed vectors over time based on input data received at the first processing node that changes over time, wherein the series of sparse distributed vectors include non-binary scalar values;
perform temporal processing on the series of sparse distributed vectors by at least:
generating vectors indicating activation of a select subset of elements of the first processing node, the vectors generated responsive to the select subset of elements in the first processing node receiving the series of sparse distributed vectors by predicting or detecting one or more spatial patterns or one or more temporal sequences in the series of sparse distributed vectors,
providing first sequence inputs to another subset of elements in a second processing node other than the first processing node, the first sequence inputs representing the activation of the select subset of elements in the first processing node, and
responsive to the prediction or detection of the one or more temporal sequences in the input data, establishing association between the selected subset of elements in the first processing node and a subset of elements in the second processing node; and

generate output data from the generated vectors to indicate at least prediction or detection of the one or more spatial patterns or the one or more temporal sequences in the input data.
