Brain Mapping and Artificial Intelligence, a heady mixture for the intellect.

Posting some news on this from the ‘Verge’

Brain Mapping Project.

Brain Mapping.

 

Stanford Professor Andrew Ng is bringing back the idea of an artificial intelligence that can think like a person. With Google’s Deep Learning project, he’s creating machines that take a multi-layered approach to information, building up knowledge and figuring out concepts by passing data between various networks that can each recognize a small piece of it. The approach is designed to mimic how the human brain processes information with neural networks, and it’s starting to work — last year, Google’s “brain” figured out how to identify cats in YouTube videos without being told that the concept of “cat” existed.

When he was a kid, Andrew Ng dreamed of building machines that could think like people, but when he got to college and came face-to-face with the AI research of the day, he gave up. Later, as a professor, he would actively discourage his students from pursuing the same dream. But then he ran into the “one algorithm” hypothesis, popularized by Jeff Hawkins, an AI entrepreneur who’d dabbled in neuroscience research. And the dream returned..(Wired)
..
This ties up nearly with the Brain mapping project of  EU.
Graphene — a thin, flexible atom-thick layer of carbon arranged in a honeycomb pattern — could one day revolutionize our electronics industry, and the European Commission hopes to spur development with up to €1 billion ($1.33 billion) in funding. The EC hasofficially announced two flagship projects for its Future and Emerging Technologies program, which will fund hundreds of research groups. The first will focus on developing practical uses for graphene, by integrating it with existing silicon-based technology or replacing silicon altogether. One long-running goal is to build cheap, efficient, and flexible semiconductors based on graphene, which the EC calls the “wonder material of the 21st Century.”

The second flagship is the “Human Brain Project,” whose goal is to create a detailed map of the human brain. With a sufficiently detailed model, researchers hope they can facilitate new insight into treating neurological diseases, developing medications, and even creating parallel computing systems based on how humans think. Two other finalists, not chosen as flagships, were a plan to promote wearable health devices and a supercomputer that would track economic and social shifts.

Each of the two winning projects will receive €54 million ($72 million) in 2013, distributed over 100 research groups for graphene work and 87 institutions for the Human Brain Project.

Suicide Advertisement By Hyundai Video

leave a comment »


Hyundai released a TV advertisement showing a man attempting to commit Suicide.

On receiving protests the advertisement was withdrawn.

The ill-conceived punch-line was that the SUV, an iX35, runs on hydrogen and, therefore, emits only water vapor, so the man can’t kill himself.

The ad was created by Hyundai’s European advertising agency Innocean Europe, according to Hyundai.

“Hyundai Motor deeply and sincerely apologizes for the offensive viral ad,” Hyundai said in a statement. “The ad was created by an affiliate advertising agency, Innocean Europe, without Hyundai’s request or approval. It runs counter to our values as a company and as members of the community. We are very sorry for any offense or distress the video caused. More to the point, Hyundai apologizes to those who have been personally impacted by tragedy.”

It was not immediately clear where the ad had originally appeared. “To the best of my knowledge it was never on any Hyundai Web site or Hyundai YouTube outlet,” Hyundai Motor America spokesman Chris Hosford said in an email.

Fire Ball UFOs Ireland.

Fireball UFOs Ireland ,A Clever Hoax?

Many questions about the legitimacy of these UFOs are being raised by online commenters and a handful of photographic and special effects experts, who speculate on whether these are flares, balloons, lanterns or simply, unexplained.

Writing on YouTube, Ireland addressed concerns about the shakiness of his UFO video.

“I am sorry for the quality, it was filmed with a mobile phone. Ironically I had a Canon EOS 55D with 300 mm lens at home that could of filmed in 3000×3000 but I was afraid that they would disappear by the time I got my camera as this is a very rare opportunity so instead, used a phone to record as much as possible.”(huffpost)

Dog Shakes Off Water,UFO Found. Videos

with one comment


Seemingly a real footage of a Video posted on Facebook.

UFO April 2013

Date of sighting: April 2013 Location of sighting: Manchester Main City, England

A Man from Arizona posted these Videos.

While filming his dog shake off water in HD, an Arizona man believes he caught a UFO as well. The YouTube site is owned by Dano Grayson, and he has a lot of beautiful HD videos from around the Arizona area. In this video his camera appears to be on the ground, his dog comes walking up from a river and shakes himself off.  At normal speed there doesn’t appear to be anything out of he ordinary. However, when he slows down the video, you can see a small object shoot out of the corner of the screen and zoom across the sky. In some of the comments people have suggested it is a bird, bug, jet, or a hoax. Take a look and decide for yourself.

To help demonstrate that he is genuine and not a hoaxster, Grayson posted a video today showing how he extracted the clip from his raw GoPro footage.

Time Traveler Caught With A Listening Device.

with one comment


Physicists have confirmed that Time Travel is possible.

I have posted on this , on the different Dimensions of Space confirmed by Modern Astrophysics and the Video presentation of Various Dimensions of Space  under ‘Astrophysics’ and TIme’

I have just received a Forward from the Alien Disclosure Group a Video where it shows a  woman talking into a listening Device(not known to us).

“Very interesting footage from 1938 (Filmed in 1937 and released in 1938) which seems to show a woman holding an unknown device to her ear. It’s quite obvious she is talking into it, only question is what is it and who is she talking too? Footage credit to Petr Richter.’
