Weight-value convergence of the SOM algorithm for discrete input.
Some insights on the convergence of the weight values of the self-organizing map (SOM) to a stationary state in the case of discrete input are provided. The convergence result is obtained by applying the Robbins-Monro algorithm and is applicable to input-output maps of any dimension.
