Regarding perception processing, Itamar has the same basic philosophy as Poggio ... the difference is that Poggio is focusing on brain modeling whereas Itamar is trying to build AGI. Which allows Itamar to insert architectural

At the Industry Day for the DARPA Deep Learning BAA (a few months ago), Itamar and I talked to the guys who are working on commercializing Poggio's stuff for image and video classification, and they said they are having a lot of trouble getting good results on practical problems. But Poggio h

t in my long reply is that for AGI we don't just need an accurate vision system, we need one that integrates well with a cognition system. Actually Poggio's systems and Itamar's are both OK in that regard (unlike, say, an SVM based vision system) .. they're both hierarchical recurrent NN architectures
