Nearest Neighbor Distributions and Noise Variance Estimation
In this paper, we address the problem of deriving bounds for the moments of nearest neighbor distributions. The bounds are formulated for the general case and specifically applied...

Visualisation of tree-structured data through generative probabilistic modelling
We present a generative probabilistic model for the topographic mapping of tree structured data. The model is formulated as constrained mixture of hidden Markov tree models. A nat...

A supervised learning approach based on STDP and polychronization in spiking neuron networks
We propose a network model of spiking neurons, without preimposed topology and driven by STDP (Spike-Time-Dependent Plasticity), a temporal Hebbian unsupervised learning mode, biol...

Classifying n-back EEG data using entropy and mutual information features
In this work we show that entropy (H) and mutual information (MI) can be used as methods for extracting spatially localized features for classification purposes. In order to incre...

An Estimation of Response Certainty using Features of Eye-movements
To examine the feasibility of estimating the degree of “strength of belief (SOB)” of viewer’s responses using support vector machines (SVM) trained with features of gazes, t...

Estimation of tangent planes for neighborhood graph correction
Local algorithms for non-linear dimensionality reduction [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] and semi-supervised learning algorithms [6], [7] use spectral decomposition based on a nearest neig...

Clustering a medieval social network by SOM using a kernel based distance measure
Abstract. In order to explore the social organization of a medieval peasant community before the Hundred Years’ War, we propose the use of an adaptation of the well-known Kohonen...

Systematicity in sentence processing with a recursive self-organizing neural network
Abstract. As potential candidates for human cognition, connectionist models of sentence processing must learn to behave systematically by generalizing from a small traning set. It ...
