🌟 Advanced Features

Dream Consolidation ("Sleeping")

The system implements a background consolidation process that mimics how brains consolidate memories during sleep:

How it works:

Runs every 5 minutes when system activity is below 30% threshold
Analyzes the last 24 hours of memories without blocking active operations
Executes 4 phases: Pattern Extraction → Insight Generation → Memory Reorganization → Insight Storage

Pattern Types Discovered:

Temporal: Time-based sequences and recurring events
Semantic: Content similarities and conceptual relationships
Structural: Graph topology patterns
Behavioral: Usage and access patterns
Causal: Cause-effect relationships
Cognitive: Thinking style patterns

Insight Types Generated:

PatternRecognition: Recurring structural patterns
TemporalConnection: Time-based relationships
ConceptualSynthesis: Merged semantic concepts
EmergentProperty: New properties from combinations
MemoryConsolidation: Strengthened important memories
CognitiveReorganization: Restructured thinking patterns

Configuration:

DreamConfig {
    consolidation_interval: 300,        // Run every 5 minutes
    insight_confidence_threshold: 0.7,  // Min confidence for insights
    analysis_window_hours: 24,          // Look at last 24 hours
    max_insights_per_cycle: 10,         // Limit insights per cycle
    enable_temporal_reorg: true,        // Reorganize time-based memories
    idle_activity_threshold: 0.3,       // Activity level for "sleep"
}

Benefits:

Discovers hidden relationships not obvious during active processing
Reorganizes memories for faster retrieval
Creates new understanding from existing knowledge
Runs only during idle time with no impact on active queries
System continuously improves through consolidation

Consciousness Processing

Awareness Levels: Multiple consciousness states
Emotional Integration: Feelings influence memory formation

Cross-Modal Intelligence

8 Memory Modalities: Semantic, Episodic, Emotional, Procedural, Contextual, Temporal, Causal, Abstract
