  • Abstract
    This paper introduces a new self-organizing system, called a continuous self organising map (CSOM). The behavior of this model, which is represented by a set of nonlinear differential equations, is identical to Kohonen´s self-organizing neural network. This paper shows that CSOM can be viewed as an appropriate non-algorithmic model for the class of one-dimensional Kohonen algorithms with an arbitrary number of inputs
