Niels Leadholm on Hierarchical Feature Binding and Robust Machine Vision - September 16th, 2020
Channel: Numenta
Date: 2021-01-12

Niels Leadholm, a visiting researcher, discusses his (recently de-anonymized) PhD research on hierarchical feature binding and robust machine vision. He first explores the issue of robust machine vision and his motivation in developing a deep-learning neural network architecture using a biologically-inspired approach. Many AI systems nowadays are vulnerable to adversarial examples. Niels explains how the characteristics of “feature binding,” which happens in a primate’s brain, can be implemented in machine learning systems to enhance robustness.

Numenta is leading the new era of machine intelligence. Our deep experience in theoretical neuroscience research has led to tremendous discoveries on how the brain works. We have developed a framework called the Thousand Brains Theory of Intelligence that will be fundamental to advancing the state of artificial intelligence and machine learning. By applying this theory to existing deep learning systems, we are addressing today’s bottlenecks while enabling tomorrow’s applications.
