A Bayesian Variational principle for dynamic Self Organizing Maps
We propose organisation conditions that yield a method for training SOM with adaptative neighborhood radius in a variational Bayesian framework. This method is validated on a non-stationary setting and compared in an high-dimensional setting with an other adaptative method.

Self-orthogonalizing attractor neural networks emerging from the free energy principle
Attractor dynamics are a hallmark of many complex systems, including the brain. Understanding how such self-organizing dynamics emerge from first principles is crucial for advancing our understanding of neuronal computat…
