Presentation by Artificial Development
Posted on September 8th, 2007 by miron
Artificial Development is giving a presentation at the Singularity Summit about their CCortex and CorticalDB products. Seems like a full featured product to create biologically plausible neural networks/brain maps (CorticalDB) and simulate the resulting network (CCortex). They claim biological high fidelity simulation, 8 bit action potentials, etc. .
The claim of up to 100 million neurons seems pretty aggressive. Not sure why they would be so much ahead of the IBM effort using x86 CPUs, even if they have thousands of them.
CCortex will be open-source.
They claim multiple levels of simulation: 1. detailed equations 2. “estimation of action potentials” 3. a proprietary method.
