WiSE Relational Edge AI©: A Catalyst for Rethinking Reality

WiSE Relational Edge AI©, invented by Nathaniel Thurston, acts as a catalyst for rethinking reality, preserving individuality, and fostering novel ideas. Its core lies in mathematical proofs based on the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture and advanced signal analysis techniques optimized for 3-manifolds.

Hyperbolic Lensing: Provides a powerful “lens” to explore and visualize complex relationships within the hyperbolic 3-manifold, revealing hidden patterns and connections that challenge our conventional understanding of data. This leads to the discovery of novel insights and solutions that might otherwise remain hidden.
Granular to Geometric Associative Memory (GGAM): Seamlessly integrates granular data with the geometric structure of the hyperbolic manifold, creating powerful associative memories that enable the system to learn and adapt. This redefines the boundaries of machine learning and pushes the limits of knowledge discovery, leading to the generation of novel markets before they emerge.
Relational Intelligence: Designed to work with today’s technologies (IoT, biosensors, LLMs, transformers, knowledge graphs, etc.), WiSE©’s ability to understand and leverage relational intelligence allows it to uncover hidden patterns and insights. This offers a deeper understanding of complex systems and their interconnectedness, while also respecting the unique characteristics of individual components within the system, which is essential for fostering creativity and novel thinking.

This capability is crucial for the Moonshot R&D program, enabling researchers to identify and connect seemingly disparate ideas and concepts, leading to the development of novel solutions and proactively matching them to market needs.
