Randomized Self Organizing Map
We propose a variation of the self organizing map algorithm by considering the random placement of neurons on a two-dimensional manifold, following a blue noise distribution from which various topologies can be derived. These topologies possess random (but controllable) discontinuities that allow for a more flexible self-organization, especially with high-dimensional data. The proposed algorithm is tested on one-, two- and three-dimensions tasks as well as on the MNIST handwritten digits dataset and validated using spectral analysis and topological data analysis tools. We also demonstrate the ability of the randomized self-organizing map to gracefully reorganize itself in case of neural lesion and/or neurogenesis.

Self-Organizing Recurrent Stochastic Configuration Networks for Nonstationary Data Modelling
Recurrent stochastic configuration networks (RSCNs) are a class of randomized learner models that have shown promise in modelling nonlinear dynamics. In many fields, however, the data generated by industry systems often …
Self-LearningA Multi-signal Variant for the GPU-based Parallelization of Growing Self-Organizing Networks
Among the many possible approaches for the parallelization of self-organizing networks, and in particular of growing self-organizing networks, perhaps the most common one is producing an optimized, parallel implementatio…
GPUA Self-Organizing Network with Varying Density Structure for Characterizing Sensorimotor Transformations in Robotic Systems
In this work, we present the development of a neuro-inspired approach for characterizing sensorimotor relations in robotic systems. The proposed method has self-organizing and associative properties that enable it to aut…
Self-organizing traffic lights: A realistic simulation
We have previously shown in an abstract simulation (Gershenson, 2005) that self-organizing traffic lights can improve greatly traffic flow for any density. In this paper, we extend these results to a realistic setting, i…
