Canonical spiking neuron network for spatiotemporal associative memory

A system comprising a computer processor, a computer-readable hardware storage device, and program code embodied with the computer-readable hardware storage device for execution by the computer processor to implement a method comprising:

• receiving an input data stream comprising one or more spatiotemporal patterns;
• extracting the one and more spatiotemporal patterns;
• storing the one or more spatiotemporal patterns in memory;
• and
• performing one or more pattern recognition tasks based on the one or more spatiotemporal patterns;
• wherein performing one or more pattern recognition tasks comprises, in response to receiving a version of the one or more spatiotemporal patterns, retrieving the one or more spatiotemporal patterns from the memory.

A computer program product comprising a computer readable hardware storage device having program code embodied therewith, the program code being executable by a computer to implement a method comprising:

• receiving an input data stream comprising one or more spatiotemporal patterns;
• extracting the one and more spatiotemporal patterns;
• storing the one or more spatiotemporal patterns in memory;
• and
• performing one or more pattern recognition tasks based on the one or more spatiotemporal patterns;
• wherein performing one or more pattern recognition tasks comprises, in response to receiving a version of the one or more spatiotemporal patterns, retrieving the one or more spatiotemporal patterns from the memory.
