HTM Mini-Columns into Hexagonal Grids!

[Bitking]

While those are possible connections they are not the correct distance away.
The lateral connections are usually a fixed distance apart.
You should like them - they are natural triangles.

Project : Full-layer V1 using HTM insights

I have been conversing with @gmirey for some time on this general topic. We endeavored to get a sense of the scale of the relative dimensional quantities of the temporal layer, inputs and cell/column spacing, number and range of the connections. You know - the basic facts of making a realistic model. Some of what was discussed was what is known about reach and density of the dendritic arbor in the “input” layer. We established the key factors would be: what is the spacing of the ascending cort…
