چکیده

The Kohonen self-organizing feature map (SOM) has several important properties that can be used within the data mining/knowledge discovery and exploratory data analysis process. A key characteristic of the SOM is its topology preserving ability to map a multi-dimensional input into a two dimensional form. This feature is used for classification and clustering of data. However, a great deal of effort is still required to interpret the cluster boundaries. In this paper we present a technique which can be used to extract propositional IF..THEN type rules from the SOM network’s internal parameters. Such extracted rules can provide a human understandable description of the discovered clusters.
