  • Abstract
    An unsupervised competitive neural network algorithm for clustering mixtures of Gaussian probability density functions is proposed. The algorithm based on centroid neural network with Bhattacharyya distance is evaluated in the context of speech recognition and the results show that it can reduce the Gaussian mixtures by almost 60% over the k-means algorithm.
