Self-organizing Maps and Ancient Documents
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents how Self-Organizing Maps and especially Kohonen maps can be applied to digital images of ancient collections in the perspective of valorization and diffusion. As an illustration, a scheme of transparency reduction of the digitized Gutenberg Bible is presented. In this two steps method, the Kohonen map is trained to generate a set of test vectors that will train in a supervised manner a classical feed-forward network. The testing step consists then in classifying each pixel into one class out of four by feeding directly the feed forward network. The pixels belonging to the transparency class are then removed.

Clustering XML Documents Using Self-organizing Maps for Structures
Self-Organizing Maps capable of encoding structured information will be used for the clustering of XML documents. Documents formatted in XML are appropriately represented as graph data structures. It will be shown that the Self-Organizing Maps can be trained in an unsupervised fashion to group XML structured data into clusters, and that this task is scaled in linear time with increasing size of...
متن کاملSelf-Organizing Maps for Classification of a Multi-Labeled Corpus
A Self-Organizing Map was used to classify the Reuters Corpus, by assigning a label to each of the documents that cluster to a specific node in the Self-Organizing Map. The predicted label is based on the most frequent label among the training documents attributed to that particular node. Experiments were carried out on different grid sizes (node numbers) to determine their influence on classif...
متن کاملCorporate Decision Making with Self-Organizing Patent Maps Labeled by Technical Terms and AHP
In this paper, we propose an approach for corporate decision making with self-organizing patent maps labeled by technical terms and AHP. First, we select the patent area of interest and collect pertinent patent documents in text format. Second, we extract keywords by text mining to transform patent documents into feature vectors of the companies. Third, we input the feature matrix of technical ...
متن کاملOrganizing Multimedia Information with Maps
Semantic multimedia organization is an open challenge. In this chapter, we present an innovative way of automatically organizing multimedia information to facilitate content-based browsing. It is based on self-organizing maps. The visualization capabilities of the self-organizing map provide an intuitive way of representing the distribution of data as well as the object similarities. The main i...
متن کاملCreating an Order in Distributed Digital Libraries by Integrating Independent Self-Organizing Maps
Digital document libraries are an almost perfect application arena for un-supervised neural networks. This because many of the operations computers have to perform on text documents are classiication tasks based on \noisy" input patterns. The \noise" arises because of the known inaccuracy of mapping natural language to an indexing vocabulary representing the contents of the documents. A growing...
