Two noted neurological researchers, Darryl Macer and Anthony Canamucio, have launched "The Behaviorome Mental Map Project" (sadly, the link currently requires a press credential, so I won't put it up). Their project is grandiose in the extreme: assuming that an "idea" is a mental conceptualization of something encountered in the past, present, or future of the human being, the number of "ideas" a human being experiences is exceptionally large but still finite. By applying the methodologies now in use in genetics, astronomy, or other computationally large sciences, the idea is to create a map of ideas: a map, that is, of the way the brain categorizes
everything.
You can put a frog in a Singularity, and he'll hop right out...
