Abstract— On the one hand, natural phenomena of spontaneous pattern formation are generally random and repetitive, whereas, on the other hand, complicated heterogeneous architect...
Abstract. This paper proposes to apply the branch and bound principle from combinatorial optimization to the Dissimilarity Self-Organizing Map (DSOM), a variant of the SOM that can...
Ant-based clustering is a nature-inspired technique whereas stochastic agents perform the task of clustering high-dimensional data. This paper analyzes the popular technique of Lum...
Recently, feature maps have been applied to various problem domains.The success of some of these applications critically depends on whether feature maps are topologically ordered. ...
This paper introduces a new type of Self-Organizing Map (SOM) for Text Categorization and Semantic Browsing. We propose a “hyperbolic SOM” (HSOM) based on a regular tesselation...
