Just to be clear, we do not use the old [temporal pooler](https://discourse.numenta.org/t/understanding-old-temporal-pooler-2011/39) anymore at Numenta. I will assume you are talking about the [temporal memory](https://discourse.numenta.org/t/temporal-memory-quiz/2174) algorithm.

We are not currently focusing on temporal sequence pooling at the moment, so I can’t answer your question. But here is a relevant topic:

So far there are lots of resources and documentation on spatial pooling and temporal sequence learning. Even lots of info on sensorimotor learning! But the concept of temporal pooling seems to be not so solidified. It was never covered in HTM school and the only discussions I’ve seen on the forum here is different strategies to try. You have a TemporalMemory in NUPIC, but I’m pretty su…
