Hey all, Johannes in particular, According to Medler: http://neuron-ai.tuke.sk/NCS/VOL1/P3_html/node28.html#SECTION00045000000000000000
"...Consequently, more frequently occurring stimuli will be represented by larger areas in the map than infrequently occurring stimuli." Which leads me to believe if you present a SOM with the same pattern, the number of nodes that fire should increase proportional to the frequency of the pattern. Problem is I can make ann_som do that, not matter what rules I specify (using the regular decreasing learning rate). If I send the same pattern to the som 10000 times, only one node will fire for that duration. Am I misinterpreting the text? Also by default does ann_som using time-seeded random numbers or regular random numbers? I ask because it appears the same node always wins at the start... (the biggest number). Is there a FANN mailinglist for the discussion of such issues? (http://leenissen.dk/fann/ is timing out for me.) Thanks, B. _______________________________________________ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
