- Computer-mediated telepathy using NN to classify FMRI data tagged by human activity at the time (e.g. looking at an image)
- Dr. Mary Lou Jepsen (wikipedia)
- opnwatr.io: What if you could see what was going on in your brain or body with the detail of a high resolution camera or MRI machine in a simple wearable? Openwater is creating a device that can enable us to see inside our brains or bodies in great detail. With this comes the promise of new abilities to diagnose and treat disease and well beyond – communicating with thought alone.
- More work on abstract cover. Pretty much done, though a rewording is in order. Something about fake news rather than Trump v Clinton, I think

- Updated confluence page to have Ellis email and the documents he referenced
- Sprint grooming
- Thinking hard about self-organizing maps
- Wikipedia article
- Self-Organizing Maps with Google’s TensorFlow
- This is a demonstration of how a self-organizing map (SOM), also known as a Kohonen network, can be used to map high-dimensional data into a two-dimensional representation. For the sake of an easy visualization ‘high-dimensional’ in this case is 3D.
- A Self Organizing Map (SOM) Package in Python: (SOMPY)
- Kohonen’s Self Organizing Feature Maps (tutorial)
- Scholar search for Teuvo Kohonen’s work
- Teuvo Kohonen’s home page at Helsinki Institute
- Has Kohonen-style SOM fallen out of favor? (cross-validated post. Interesting links and compare with t-SNE)
- Scikit-learn developer discussion on whether to support SOMs
