Just wanted to discuss where we are in the project as of today.

Hi, 

I am interested to know where you are in the project. I never had the chance to really test something workin, and the project was already too big to find a good start position.
Could you explain to us, what you have done, from now on?

Hi guys!

Happy to find you are in healthy state.
Any case, I'm open always,

In fact I've stopped coding for a while till it will be clear to me what direction to prefer.
Still I continue reading scientific data and thinking about the matter.
Now I do know about connectivity of thalamus and modulating projections, role of nucleus of Meynert and so on - w/o much result,

Planning page mostly reflects current state and order of creating aHuman.
Mind has 3 levels of implementation - neural networks, neural patterns and mind circuitts.

Neural networks was the last attempt to code - to build dynamic network based on real-time delays.
But neural networking approach was too simple - relay with feedback.
Implementation of receptive fields could be a next step.

Research results are required to suggest the plausible principle of non-cortex networking patterns - like LGN and other subcortical nuclei.
Certain efforts have been spent to understand Grossberg models of cortex and cortex-thalamic curcuits. While Hawkins is IT guy who tries to make business, Grossberg is the originator of computational neuroscience and propeses quite interesting models of cortex - much more specific but of limited functional view.

Finally, establishing high-level circuits enable to propose exact role of specific mind component.
E.g. hippocampus is presented by some researchers as temporal pooler for sensory data and cerebellum as temporal pooler for motor functions.

What is the focus.
Maybe to build low-level dynamic neural network having clear non-chaotic funcions.
