Absolutely nice to check his work. He founded a startup, Brain Corporation (http://www.braincorporation.com/) recently.

Coincidence detection where delays are playing a functional role is one of the things that I find interesting (as well as the fact that there are more polychronous groups than neurons). The other thing is the emergence of gamma waves. I would be surprised if these do also not have some functional role (although it might be just as well the humming of our biological processor). :-)

I wish I was brave enough to start experimenting with different neural networks. For now I am on the roll "Bayesianfying" everything I encounter. Even the Hough transform that Hinton is so fond of in this talk. :-)
