Rename "temporal memory" to TP #43

Closed breznak closed 10 years ago

breznak commented 10 years ago

I think what this class represents is a TemporalPooler, right? https://github.com/numenta/htm.java/blob/master/src/main/java/org/numenta/nupic/research/TemporalMemory.java

If so, please consider renaming it to that, or TP...but temporal memory is used by the new "TM" code in nupic.research that maps a sequence to a SDR.

The new TemporalMemory has no pooling. I think you were gone during the "GREAT DEBATE" over names and associated concepts... The TemporalMemory class was meant to more closely exemplify the white paper and remove pooling complexity which conceptually would be deferred to (exist in) layer/hierarchical functionality. afaik.

We find it hard to hear what another is saying because of how loudly "who one is", speaks...

@breznak This TemporalMemory class is the new Temporal Memory implementation @Chetan51 wrote. It is not the old Temporal Pooler. Just so you know why I closed this.
