Synopsis:

The second module is oriented to self-organized artificial neural networks. The biological context, cluster analysis and principal component analysis are used for self-organized artificial neural network realization. Self-organization is discussed both in vector and metric spaces.

Requirements:

Basic knowledges from linear algebra.

Syllabus of lectures:

1.Self-organization, patterns, etalons.

2.Vector space with Minkowski metrics.

3.Metric space of strings.

4.Cluster analysis in vector space.

5.Cluster analysis in metric space.

6.SOM as extended cluster analysis.

7.SOM topology, SOM as transformation.

8.Kohonen learning of SOM.

9.SOM learning in metric space.

10.Traditional principal component analysis.

11.Oja neuron, Oja learning.

12.APEX and GHA networks.

13.Kernel PCA technique.
