What would also be very interesting for me is seeing whether HTM Theory can help progress Deep Learning algorithms. For example one could investigate whether CNNs can be made (more) resistant to adversarial attacks by incorporating SDRs in CNNs for their robustness against noise. SDRs and Spatial pooling have great properties that can also be used in other domains of AI algorithm research.

This is what we are currently working on. Stay tuned, we’ll have a paper out on this soon. Specifically on how adding sparsity to DL networks via a SP hidden layer helps with noise and uses less computation.
