As a sociological phenomenon, rumor spreading has been widely researched by sociologists and other fields’ scholars. How do people generate those strange thinking about the rumor? This paper, from artificial intelligence view, focuses on an algorithm based on Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) to simulate human cognitive process of generating rumors from individual heterogeneous living experience. Comparison with classical Bayesian Networks, our algorithm could effectively and really simulate human cognitive process of rumors, and in accordance with some typical psychology effects proved by sociologists and psychologists.
