Vitamin D Announces Visual Analysis Tools for Numenta Platform for Intelligent Computing

Posted on: Wednesday, 29 August 2007, 12:13 CDT

Vitamin D, Inc., a startup developing intelligent computing solutions, announced today that it is building the Vitamin D Toolkit, a visual analysis tool for hierarchical temporal memory (HTM) networks. The Vitamin D Toolkit provides developers with a graphical user interface to visualize, analyze and optimize HTM networks that have been created with the NuPIC platform from Numenta.

"The Vitamin D Toolkit adds an elegant graphical UI layer on top of the NuPIC tools," said Rob Haitani, CEO and Chief Product Officer of Vitamin D. "This allows developers to quickly see what is going on in their network, fix problem areas, and accelerate application development."

The Vitamin D Toolkit will be released as a public beta in Q4 of 2007. There will be no charge for the beta release, although Vitamin D plans to release a commercial version in 2008. The Vitamin D Toolkit will be released on both Windows and Mac OS platforms.

"We are thrilled to have Vitamin D provide a graphical UI 'face' for the NuPIC platform," said Jeff Hawkins, Numenta founder. "I've seen early working demos, and you can tell that Vitamin D has put a lot of thought into helping developers get the most out of their HTM networks."
