  • Abstract
    In this paper a new unsupervised neural network, characterized by the absence of competition between its elements, is introduced. The kernel of this network is a new neural unit able to perform clustering even acting alone. It is shown how this network overcomes some of the major drawbacks of classical unsupervised competitive architectures
