Israel's Cortica seeks to nip at Mobileye's heels with brain-mimicking tech
Toyota teams with Israeli co Cortica in race for autonomous car
Mobileye, an Israeli company acquired by Intel for $15.3 billion in 2017, currently holds over 70% of the global market in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). However, Toyota, the worlds largest auto manufacturer, refuses to adopt Mobileyes technology, claiming it can achieve better results independently. Toyota has close ties with a number of Japanese tier-1 suppliers, including Renesas, a huge company known as the worlds largest supplier of microcontrollers. Renesas recently installed an algorithm from Israeli auto-tech company Cortica on a super-chip for an autonomous vehicle as a solution for Level 2 and 3 ADAS autonomous vehicle systems. This could potentially disrupt Mobileyes dominance in the ADAS market.

Next Generation AI Enables Machines to Think and Learn Like People
Cortica, an Israeli company founded in 2007, has developed a new form of artificial intelligence (AI) known as Autonomous AI. This technology mimics human cognitive function, enabling machines to think and learn independently. This is a significant departure from the current deep learning approach to AI, which relies on large amounts of annotated data to teach a machine to recognise a set of possibilities and parameters. Corticas approach, inspired by the structures and functions of the cortical network in rats brains, allows machines to learn and comprehend on their own. The company has received over $60 million in funding and holds over 200 patents for its Autonomous AI methods.

Cortica teaches autonomous vehicles with unsupervised learning
Cortica is expanding its AI technology into the automotive sector, using unsupervised machine learning to help autonomous vehicles better understand their environment. The system developed by Cortica processes data from vehicle sensors, clusters them, and tags them with predefined metadata. The companys CEO, Igal Raichelgauz, stated that the system can process large volumes of data generated by in-vehicle cameras. The system uses a cloud/local hybrid architecture to manage the data volume, offloading non-vital processing to the cloud to reduce complexity and power consumption.

Cortica, Numenta Hold Top Patents In Artificial Intelligence
A study of over 1,150 active AI startups has found that only 11% have been granted at least one patent in the United States since 2009. The new wave of AI applications, driven by a combination of big data and processing capabilities, has attracted over $15B in funding to AI startups in the last 5 years. The low patent activity could be due to most companies still being in the early stages of development. Some of the top patent holders in the field include Israel-based image processing startup Cortica, and Numenta, which is working on artificial general intelligence.
