Six Networks, One Brain

NIMCP doesn't train a single monolithic model. It trains six heterogeneous neural networks simultaneously, with gradient flow across network boundaries.

Adaptive
9-layer diamond, GPU-accelerated backprop
Spiking (SNN)
768 LIF neurons, BPTT surrogate gradients
Liquid (LNN)
Continuous-time ODE, adjoint gradients
Convolutional
4 cortex processors: visual, audio, speech, somato
Fourier (FNO)
Spectral convolution, frequency-domain learning
Hamiltonian
Energy-conserving, physics-informed dynamics
🧠

Biological Plasticity

Five learning rules at five timescales: STDP (10ms), BCM (50ms), eligibility traces (1s), structural plasticity (10s), homeostatic scaling (60s). Four neuromodulators modulate learning from reward and novelty signals.

👶

Developmental Curriculum

Four stages mirroring human cognitive development: sensory awakening, cross-modal naming, feedback learning, abstract reasoning. Each stage builds on the previous one.

🛡

Safety by Design

Ethics module is always created regardless of configuration. LGSS governance evaluates every inference and weight update. Tamper-resistant audit log. Safety rules can only get stricter.

🤖

Edge & Robot Platform

12 sensor types, safety watchdog, motor output. Four drone interfaces. ROS 2 bridge. Sim-to-real transfer with domain randomization.

🌐

Swarm Intelligence

Multi-device federation with UDP discovery, Byzantine fault tolerance, and gossip-based gradient aggregation. Theory of Mind through multi-agent observation.

💬

Brain-Native Language

Learned vocabulary from neural activation patterns. Autoregressive decoding with nucleus sampling. Emergent omega-tokens. Inner speech loop for self-refinement.

Safety as Architecture, Not Alignment

Structural safety guarantees vs. behavioral training. Nine-layer governance system with non-removable ethics, monotonic rules, tamper-resistant audit. Compared to RLHF and Constitutional AI.

Cross-Network Gradient Flow in Heterogeneous Architectures

Learnable bridges enable knowledge transfer between spiking, liquid, and rate-coded networks. Composite loss with contrastive pressure drives representational specialization.

Sensorimotor Curiosity Without Reward Shaping

Prediction error drives dopamine-gated STDP in a closed sensorimotor loop. No external reward function. Natural exploration-exploitation transition. ROS 2 robot deployment.

INTRINSIC MOTIVATION • EMBODIED AI

Embodied Identity in Artificial Cognitive Systems

Big Five personality traits modulate neuromodulator baselines, shaping how the brain learns. Emotional state drives voice prosody. Identity is a learning parameter, not a style overlay.
