The Octopus Neural System (ONS), a core component of the HyperWaveCore® technology, exemplifies an innovative leap in artificial intelligence by forming what are known as engrams or memory traces. Let’s delve into how ONS creates holographic memory formations and why this represents a breakthrough in machine learning and computation.

Engrams: The Fabric of Memory

In the context of ONS, an engram is defined as a permanent alteration within its decentralized network that constitutes memory. It is a memory trace, an inscription created by experiences and learning. Unlike traditional machine learning that requires extensive data sets and iterative training, ONS engrams interpret information without any of that. They learn from a singular example, enabling the system to form a sophisticated understanding of complex concepts such as pressure and time, rapidly and with unparalleled precision.

Learning Concepts with Single Example

ONS demonstrates its capacity by learning the concepts of pressure and the passage of time using a model that replicates the stresses experienced by a pressure vessel. This vessel expands and contracts based on the behavior of gases or liquids within, modifiable via the "Medium" parameter. The ONS system is able to learn and adjust to these changes effectively, signifying its dynamic and responsive nature.

ONS Integrators: Understanding Through Sensors

ONS employs integrators equipped with thousands of fine-grained sensors. These integrators are exposed to data once and can learn concepts holistically. For instance, ONS IntegratorA656871F learns the concept of time by analyzing sensor data points and develops what is termed as an Unstructured Awareness Engram. It understands that time passes linearly, a significant conceptual leap for an AI system.

Similarly, ONS Integrator443EFA7F learns about heat and pressure by interpreting how pressure changes with temperature, again through a single exposure to data points. This results in the development of a Temperature and Pressure Unstructured Awareness Engram.

Unstructured Awareness and Nonlinear Optimization

What sets ONS apart is its unstructured awareness—its ability to understand and learn concepts without prior structuring or training. It accomplishes nonlinear optimization 30 times faster than any conventional algorithm, highlighting its efficiency and innovative capabilities.

Self-Organizing, Self-Growing Intelligence

ONS is a self-organizing, self-growing intelligence that learns from single examples, with the ability to form recombinant memories. This means it can integrate disparate pieces of information into new, cohesive memories without explicit programming. Moreover, this technology eliminates data bias and the need for data labeling, addressing two significant issues prevalent in current machine learning practices.

ONS in Production

Currently, the ONS operates through a vast network of servers and is integrated with high-frequency chip technology that uses noise and jitter (dithering) for signal processing. It is 10^8 times faster than conventional machine learning, using a distributed, fine-grained sensor array for intelligent signal processing.

Wolfram Research Mathematica Integration

Integration with Wolfram Research Mathematica simplifies the development process, allowing for seamless creation and deployment of ONS-based applications. This integration enables rapid prototyping and deployment, further speeding up the innovation cycle.
