Hierarchical Growing Neural Gas

چکیده
This paper describes TreeGNG, a top-down unsupervised learning method that produces hierarchical classification schemes. TreeGNG is an extension to the Growing Neural Gas algorithm that maintains a time history of the learned topological mapping. TreeGNG is able to correct poor decisions made during the early phases of the construction of the tree, and provides the novel ability to influence the general shape and form of the learned hierarchy.

Hierarchical Overlapped Growing Neural Gas Networks with Applications to Video Shot Detection and Motion Characterization
This paper describes a hierarchical overlapped architecture (HOGNG) based upon the Growing Neural Gas (GNG) network [1]. The proposed architecture combines the unsupervised and supervised learning schemes in GNG. This novel network model was used to perform automatic video shot detection and motion characterization. Experimental results are presented to show the good classification accuracy of ...
متن کاملGrowing Neural Networks using Soft Competitive Learning
This paper gives an overview of some classical Growing Neural Networks (GNN) using soft competitive learning. In soft competitive learning each input signal is characterized by adapting in addition to the winner also some other neurons of the network. The GNN is also called the ANN with incremental learning. The artificial neural networks (ANN) mapping capability depends on the number of layers...
متن کاملHuman Action Recognition with Hierarchical Growing Neural Gas Learning
We propose a novel biologically inspired framework for the recognition of human full-body actions. First, we extract body pose and motion features from depth map sequences. We then cluster pose-motion cues with a two-stream hierarchical architecture based on growing neural gas (GNG). Multi-cue trajectories are finally combined to provide prototypical action dynamics in the joint feature space. ...
متن کاملTeaching a machine to see: unsupervised image segmentation and categorisation using growing neural gas and hierarchical clustering
We present a novel unsupervised learning approach to automatically segment and label images in astronomical surveys. Automation of this procedure will be essential as next-generation surveys enter the petabyte scale: data volumes will exceed the capability of even large crowdsourced analyses. We demonstrate how a growing neural gas (GNG) can be used to encode the feature space of imaging data. ...
متن کاملPrediction of pore facies using GMDH-type neural networks: a case study from the South Pars gas field, Persian Gulf basin
The current study proposes a two-step approach for pore facies characterization in the carbonate reservoirs with an example from the Kangan and Dalanformations in the South Pars gas field. In the first step, pore facies were determined based on Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure (MICP) data incorporation with the Hierarchical Clustering Analysis (HCA) method. In the next step, polynomial meta...
