Self organizing map som, neural gas, and growing neural gas. Nevertheless, a rigorous definition of a measure for the state of organization of a som that is also natural, captures the intuitive properties of organization and. The ability to self organize provides new possibilities adaptation to formerly unknown input data. A self organizing map som or self organising feature map sofm is a type of artificial neural network ann that is trained using unsupervised learning to produce a lowdimensional typically twodimensional, discretized representation of the input space of the training samples, called a map.

Stateoftheart, challenges and perspectives conference paper pdf available july 2010 with 1,246 reads how we measure reads. Training builds the map using input examples a competitive process, also called vector quantization, while mapping automatically classifies a new input vector the visible part of a selforganizing map is the map space, which consists of components called nodes or neurons. Neural networks use a data training set to build rules capable of making predictions or. Artificial neural networks which are currently used in tasks such as speech and handwriting recognition are based on learning mechanisms in the brain i.
Kohonen style vector quantizers use some sort of explicitly specified topology to encourage good separation among prototype neurons. In addition, one kind of artificial neural network, self organizing networks, is based on the topographical organization of the brain. Kohonen s networks are arrangements of computing nodes in one, two, or multidimensional lattices. Self organizing map som the self organizing map was developed by professor kohonen. Finally an overview of different applications of soms in maritime problems is presented. Because of the large number of parameters involved, the process of automating the network planning is.
