Abstract

The quality of cluster result and the learning speed of Self-organizing map (SOM) are dependent on the initialization of weights since the initial values for weight vectors affect the performance of SOM training when applied to clustering. In this paper, improvement of SOM was achieved with the application of the Nguyen-Widrow algorithm to initialize weights. Nguyen-Widrow initialization algorithm is a method for initialization of the weights of neural networks to speed up the training process. Performance of the modified SOM was determined in terms of cluster error rate and the number of iterations to achieve convergence using different datasets and results show that the modified SOM algorithm produces better cluster results and improved training speed compared to traditional SOM.
