@mastersthesis{TUM2003-arndt, title = {Parallelimplementierung von rekurrenten selbstorganisierenden Karten}, author = {Holger Arndt}, abstract = {Self-Organizing Maps are a type of Neural Network to model the brain's ability to self-organize and preserve the topological relationship of the provided data. However, as large models result in high computational complexity, it makes sense to distribute the task among several computers in a cluster. This thesis proposes a parallel implementation of Recurrent Self-Organizing Maps using Message Passing Software for inter-process communication. As a result, computing time can be reduced and a brain-like distributed structure is obtained.}, location = {Munich, Germany}, month = {May}, year = {2003} }
