SPARSE PREDICTIVE HIERARCHES: AN ALTERNATIVE TO DEEP LEARNING

Sparse Predictive Hierarches: An Alternative to Deep Learning

This tutorial serves to describe an alternative paradigm to the highly popular Deep Learning, by describing methods which avoid backpropagation, i.i.d sampling, batches, and dense SLEEPYTIME representations in favor of biologically-inspired, sparse, online/incremental learning with entirely local operations.It seeks to show that such methods can wo

Synthesis and Olfactory Characterization of New Fragrant Materials through Chemical Modification of Methyleugenol Molecular Framework by Introducing Ester Functional Groups

There is a M JACKETS continuing search for materials having desirable fragrance properties.Such materials are sought either to replace costly natural materials or to provide new fragrances or perfume types, which have not heretofore been available.Hence, the objective of this paper is the synthesis and olfactory characterization of new fragrant mat
