Neural Annealing: Toward a Neural Theory of Everything – Opentheory.net

QRI's own Symmetry Theory of Valence (STV), which hypothesizes that given a mathematical representation of an experience, the symmetry of this representation will encode how pleasant the experience is (Johnson 2016). We further hypothesize that consonance between a brain's connectome-specific harmonic waves (CSHWs) will be a reasonable proxy for this symmetry (Gomez Emilsson 2017). Marr's Three Levels: as explained on our lineages page, David Marr is most famous for Marr's Three Levels (along with Tomaso Poggio), which describe "the three levels at which any machine carrying out an information-processing task must be understood:" Computational theory: What is the goal of the computation, why is it appropriate, and what is the logic of the strategy by which it can be carried out? Representation and algorithm: How can this computational theory be implemented? In particular, what is the representation for the input and output, and what is the algorithm for the transformation? Hardware implementation: How can the representation and algorithm be realized physically?
