Claim Text:
1. A method of neural pattern sequence completion, comprising: referencing each sequence of parts of a pattern in a set of one or more first layer neurons with a second layer of referencing neurons by learning the second layer of referencing neurons to generate each sequence of parts of the pattern; learning a relation between one or more elements of the pattern and firing of the second layer of referencing neurons for each sequence of parts of the pattern; referencing a pattern sequence in the second layer of referencing neurons with a third layer of referencing neurons by learning the third layer of referencing neurons to generate the pattern sequence; learning another relation between one or more elements of the pattern sequence and firing of the pattern sequence by the third layer of referencing neurons; and replaying a subsequent part of the pattern in the first layer neurons upon producing a prior part of the pattern, wherein sensitivity of the third layer of referencing neurons to a second layer input is increased during the replaying, and wherein an activation of at least one of the second or third layer of referencing neurons inhibits a near-term re-activation of the at least one of the second or third layer of referencing neurons for maintaining forward replay of the pattern sequence by inhibiting backward steps.
