Publication 6 SelfOrganizing Map in Matlab: the SOM Toolbox

The Self-Organizing Map (SOM) is a vector quantization method which places the prototype vectors on a regular low-dimensional grid in an ordered fashion. This makes the SOM a powerful visualization tool. The SOM Toolbox is an implementation of the SOM and its visualization in the Matlab 5 computing environment. In this article, the SOM Toolbox and its usage are shortly presented. Also its performance in terms of computational load is evaluated and compared to a corresponding Cprogram.
