Road Map

Now: Usability

Anyone should be able to use this project. It should take no more than 30 minutes for someone who is unfamiliar with this project to download, compile, and run a simple program with it. Having an easy to use library isn't going to attract many users, but having a difficult to use library will certainly deter potential users. To this end we are working on:

• Cross platform support.
• Removing unneeded or unwanted dependencies, including Boost.
• Switching to python3
  • (python2 end of life is 1/1/2020)
• General Clean Up and Refactoring of this repository

Next: Speed

Nupic should be fast enough to process data in real time. This is important for building real world applications. Speed also helps with research by decreasing the run time of experiments.

Later: Research

As our understanding of the brain continues to improve, so should this project. The Numenta research group has made several innovations/discoveries which are worth incorporating into this project. Ideas for improvements include:

• ColumnPooler
