چکیده

This paper discusses a methodology to manage wireless sensor networks (WSN) with self-organising feature maps, using co-operative Extended Kohonen Maps (EKMs). EKMs have been successfully demonstrated in other machine-learning contexts such as learning sensori-motor control and feedback tasks. Through a quantitative analysis of the algorithmic process, an indirect-mapping EKM can self-organise from a given input space, such as the WSN’s external factors, to administer the WSN’s routing and clustering functions with a control parameter space. Preliminary results demonstrate indirect mapping with EKMs provide an economical control and feedback mechanism by operating in a continuous sensory control space when compared with direct mapping techniques. By training the control parameter, a faster convergence is made with processes such as the recursive least squares method. The management of a WSN’s clustering and routing procedures are enhanced by the co-operation of multiple self-organising EKMs to adapt to actively changing conditions in the environment.

Co-operative neural networks and ‘integrated’ classification

‘Integrated’ classification refers to the conjunctive or competitive use of two or more (neural) classifiers. A cooperative neural network system comprising two independently trained Kohonen networks and co-operating with the help of a Hebbian network, is described. The effectiveness of such a network is demonstrated by using it to retrieve images and related texts from a multi-media database. ...

A Simple Robust Robotic Vision System using Kohonen Feature Mapping

We use a one-dimensional Kohonen network for detecting the angular position of an infrared beacon in front of an experimental autonomous vehicle. The inputs to the Kohonen network are the analog output signals from eight infrared detectors arranged along a semicircle on the front of the vehicle. By letting the network self-organise while a beacon is moved from one side to the other in front of ...

on the rim of the structure

The self-organizing feature maps introduced by T. Kohonen use a cell array of xed size and structure. In many cases this array is not able to model a given signal distribution properly. We present a method to construct two-dimensional cell structures during a self-organization process which are specially adapted to the underlying distribution: Starting with a small number of cells new cells are...

Action Selection for Single- and Multi-Robot Tasks Using Cooperative Extended Kohonen Maps

This paper presents an action selection framework based on an assemblage of self-organizing neural networks called Cooperative Extended Kohonen Maps. This framework encapsulates two features that significantly enhance a robot’s action selection capability: self-organization in the continuous state and action spaces to provide smooth, efficient and fine motion control; action selection via the c...
