Fast self-organizing feature map algorithm

Abstract: We present an efficient approach to forming feature maps. The method involves three stages. In the first stage, we use the K-means algorithm to select N2 (i.e., the size of the feature map to be formed) cluster centers from a data set. Then a heuristic assignment strategy is employed to organize the N2 selected data points into an N x N neural array so as to form an initial feature map. If the initial map is not good enough, then it will be fine-tuned by the traditional Kohonen self-organizing feature map (SOM… Show more

“…, and ), initial values of weight vectors, and the number of iterations are predetermined. In our experiments discussed in Section 4 , the initialization method proposed in [ 35 ] was utilized to initialize the weight vectors to quickly construct a good initial map. As for the values of the main parameters ( i.e.…”

“…SOMs are classified as machine learning algorithms. They were introduced by Kohonen et al [21] and since then they have been applied for chemical space navigation, discrimination of libraries for various targets based on a variety of structural elements or properties [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] It is a widely known method that is easily interpretable and visualizable. To the best of our knowledge, however, SOMs have not been applied for the analysis and comparison of various supplier catalogs and thereby for the exploration and exploitation of currently unpopulated parts of the purchasable and druglike chemical space using physicochemical properties as descriptors.…”
