Gradient Expectations: Structure, Origins, and Synthesis of Predictive Neural Networks

An insightful investigation into the mechanisms underlying the predictive functions of neural networks—and their ability to chart a new path for AI.

Prediction is a cognitive advantage like few others, inherently linked to our ability to survive and thrive. Our brains are awash in signals that embody prediction. Can we extend this capability more explicitly into synthetic neural networks to improve the function of AI and enhance its place in our world? Gradient Expectations is a bold effort ...
