You should start by reading the NuPIC Wiki. Don’t use this codebase. It is old, looks unsupported. See here for a list of popular HTM implementations.

thank you. i am learnning about HTM for recognization digits handwritten. but i dont know any code talk about this. can you help me?

#4

This might help you out.

@tikky there is this code provided: https://github.com/numenta/nupic.vision/tree/master/src/nupic/vision/mnist

I’m not sure if it still works. Also, according to this site: https://rodrigob.github.io/are_we_there_yet/build/classification_datasets_results.html#4d4e495354

The best error rates are below 0.5%, much better than the reported ~5% error rate for HTM.

#7

Have you installed NuPIC? If so, how did you do it?

For any new piece of code you want to try and run, the first thing to do is read the README file. The NuPIC README is here and in the root directory of the code you downloaded.

The README tells you two ways you can install. If you only want to use NuPIC, you don’t even need the source code. You can try installing with pip install nupic. This works on most modern computer environments (macOS, Windows, Linux), but sometimes dependencies need to be installed.

The other way to install is to compile the code yourself (including the C++ in nupic.core). If you don’t care about how NuPIC works, you don’t want to do this.

when i run setup.py numpy 1.11.2 . i get error
================= RESTART: C:\Python27\numpy-1.11.2\setup.py =================
Running from numpy source directory.
can you help me? thank you

#12

You should not need to install numpy from source code. When you run pip install nupic, numpy should get installed from binary on your system. What is the console output when you run pip install nupic?

#13

sorry. i dont understand you mean. i use python 2.7.1 on windows. my work screen is Python 2.7.13 Shell. how can i run pip install nupic.

#14

You must get to a command prompt. I’m not familiar with your environment, I’m sorry I can’t help much here.

#15

If you can take a screenshot of your screen and post here, it might help. You can upload images by dragging them into the comment box.

can you help me fix error? thank you

I still don’t think you have nupic installed correctly.

In Ubuntu, run pip install nupic and paste the console output to see what went wrong.

i just run your command
i get
