Neural Turing Machine Introduced by Alex Graves, Greg Wayne, and Ivo Danihelka
In October 2014, Alex Graves, Greg Wayne, and Ivo Danihelka at Google DeepMind published 'Neural Turing Machines', a preprint proposing a neural network architecture augmented with an external memory matrix and differentiable read/write operations, enabling the system to learn algorithms such as sorting and copying from examples alone.
DeepMind Technologies Founded
Demis Hassabis, Shane Legg, and Mustafa Suleyman co-founded DeepMind Technologies in London in 2010, establishing an independent research laboratory with the stated goal of developing general-purpose artificial intelligence grounded in neuroscience.
