Self-Organizing neural networks: recent advances and applications

TLDR
A compact and vivid collection of almost all aspects of current research on Self-Organizing Maps, ranging from theoretical work, several technical and non-technical applications, numerical and implementation details on sequential and parallel hardware to self-organisation with spiking neurons.
Abstract
This compilation contains new theoretical work as well as up-to-date applications contributed by some of the world leaders of current SOM research. It is a compact and vivid collection of almost all aspects of current research on Self-Organizing Maps, ranging from theoretical work, several technical and non-technical applications, numerical and implementation details on sequential and parallel hardware to self-organisation with spiking neurons. An overture, given by Teuvo Kohonen, builds a bridge from the development of the fundamentals to the many extensions, modifications and applications which have made this neural network architecture so successful.

Essentials of the self-organizing map

TL;DR: The self-organizing map (SOM) is an automatic data-analysis method widely applied to clustering problems and data exploration in industry, finance, natural sciences, and linguistics and can be found in the management of massive textual databases and in bioinformatics.
