Introduction

In the forever evolving field of artificial intelligence, the fusion of different computational paradigms often leads to breakthroughs in performance and efficiency. This article dives into the integration of Hyperdimensional Computing (HDC) and Neuro Symbolic AI (NSAI) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for time-series prediction tasks.

We’ll explore the mathematical foundations, dissect the code implementation, discuss potential use cases, compare benefits over traditional approaches and analyse the results obtained from our experiments.

Mathematical Foundations

1. Hyperdimensional Computing (HDC)

Hyperdimensional Computing is inspired by the way the human brain processes information using patterns of neural activity that are high-dimensional, distributed, and holographic. HDC represents data as hypervectors in high-dimensional spaces (typically in the thousands or tens of thousands of dimensions).

Encoding and Manipulation

  • Hypervectors: Random vectors with elements typically chosen from {-1, +1}.
  • Superposition
