Abstract

A new computational algorithm, the Probing Algorithm, is introduced for the subproblem of finding the best matching unit in Kohonen’s self-organization procedure. It is compared to exhaustive search and four other algorithms, and shown to be roughly 6 to 10 times faster for the case of high-dimensional vectors.
