Jeff Hawkins, author of On Intelligence founded Numenta to study the neocortex. Jeff is also a successful entrepreneur which, I think, has helped Numenta operate without seeking profits. So from an outsiders point of view it does seem like they have been off going their own thing.<p>Have any of you who know a lot about neuroscience taken a look at Numenta's latest papers? If so can you please comment on them for us laypeople.
