چکیده
SOM O.D.I.S.S.E.A.S is an intelligent searching tool using the SelfOrganizing Map (SOM) algorithm, as a prototype e-content retrieval tool. The proposed searching tool has the ability to adjust and scale into any e-learning system that requires concept-based queries. In the proposed methodology, maps are used for the automatic replacement of the unstructured, the half structured and the multidimensional data of text, in a way that similar entries in the map are represented near between them. The performance and the functionality of the document organization, and the retrieval tool employing the SOM architecture, are also presented. Furthermore, experiments were performed to test the time performance of a learning algorithm used for the direct creation of teams of terms and texts enabling efficient searching and retrieval of the

متن کاملLandforms identification using neural network-self organizing map and SRTM data
During an 11 days mission in February 2000 the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) collected data over 80% of the Earth's land surface, for all areas between 60 degrees N and 56 degrees S latitude. Since SRTM data became available, many studies utilized them for application in topography and morphometric landscape analysis. Exploiting SRTM data for recognition and extraction of topographic ...
متن کاملThe Time Adaptive Self Organizing Map for Distribution Estimation
The feature map represented by the set of weight vectors of the basic SOM (Self-Organizing Map) provides a good approximation to the input space from which the sample vectors come. But the timedecreasing learning rate and neighborhood function of the basic SOM algorithm reduce its capability to adapt weights for a varied environment. In dealing with non-stationary input distributions and changi...
متن کاملContent Based Image Retrieval Using a Bootstrapped SOM Network
A modification of the well-known PicSOM retrieval system is presented. The algorithm is based on a variant of the self-organizing map algorithm that uses bootstrapping. In bootstrapping the feature space is randomly sampled and a series of subsets are created that are used during the training phase of the SOM algorithm. Afterwards, the resulting SOM networks are merged into one single network w...
متن کاملNGTSOM: A Novel Data Clustering Algorithm Based on Game Theoretic and Self- Organizing Map
Identifying clusters is an important aspect of data analysis. This paper proposes a noveldata clustering algorithm to increase the clustering accuracy. A novel game theoretic self-organizingmap (NGTSOM ) and neural gas (NG) are used in combination with Competitive Hebbian Learning(CHL) to improve the quality of the map and provide a better vector quantization (VQ) for clusteringdata. Different ...
