On periodic distributed representations using Fourier embeddings
Researchers have developed a method for creating periodic distributed representations using Fourier embeddings, which can better handle and distinguish nearby angles compared to traditional scalar representations. This approach allows for control over dot product similarities and the construction of various kernel shapes. The work formalizes Dirichlet and periodic Gaussian kernels within the Spatial Semantic Pointers framework. AI
