About the Research
This research blog documents the Independent Research & Development Genesis initiative, exploring novel paradigms in artificial intelligence and machine learning through a physics-inspired lens.
Background & Approach
My academic background is in Finance and Accounting, not computer science. This project represents a self-funded research effort driven by curiosity about fundamental questions: Can we model cognition using physics and neuroscience principles instead of pure statistics? Can hyperdimensional computing provide a more interpretable foundation for semantic reasoning?
The ideas, research direction, and architecture emerged from my exploration of cognitive science, physics, and neuroscience literature. The implementation leverages modern AI-assisted development tools (Claude, Codex, Gemini) to translate conceptual designs into functional code—a pragmatic approach that allows domain exploration without deep programming expertise.
Research Goals
This work aims to:
- Validate a novel paradigm: Physics-inspired semantic reasoning with HDC vectors
- Document the research journey: From concept to working prototype
- Engage the academic community: Seeking feedback, collaboration, and mentorship
- Explore formalization opportunities: Open to PhD supervision or research partnerships in AI/ML/Cognitive Science
Current Status
GDS is a proof-of-concept research prototype demonstrating:
- Functional HDC-based semantic tokenization (20,000-dimensional vectors)
- ~800x storage optimization through binary representations
- Autonomous learning via physics-inspired validation gates
- Multilingual semantic reasoning capabilities
This is exploratory research, not a commercial product. All findings, code, and methodology are documented transparently to enable reproducibility and scholarly discussion.
Contact & Collaboration
I welcome dialogue with:
- Academic researchers in AI, ML, neuroscience, or cognitive science
- Potential PhD supervisors interested in novel AI paradigms
- Collaborators exploring alternative approaches to language understanding
