Hey Alex.
This sounds interesting - I'm not familiar with the technique.
We already have Manifold learning which does a non-linear dimensionality
reduction as well.
I don't know how it compares to the Kohonen maps but it seems worth looking
into.
Here's the Manifold learning documentation
http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/manifold.html
Here's a link to the contributors guide:
http://scikit-learn.org/stable/developers/index.html
Anyone know more about this?
