similar to: kohonen: "Argument data should be numeric"

Hi All, I am still learning R, but making, IMO, great strides. I learned about Kohonen/Self-Organizing Maps in class and I would like to try to replicate some of the things we have seen in class. Below is my code. I am trying to create a u-matrix. In the documentation on page 9 it appears the type of plot, dist.neighbours should do the trick, however, I am getting an error: (Error in

All, The kohonen predict function is returning NA for SOM predictions regardless of data used... even the package example for a SOM using wine data is returning NA's Does anyone have a working example SOM. Also, what is the purpose of trainY, what would be the dependent data for an unsupervised SOM? As may be apparent to you by my questions, I am very new to kohonen maps and am very grateful

I have a data set with 10 variables, and about 8000 instances (or objects/rows/samples). In addition I have one more ('class') variable that I have about 10 instances for, but for which I wish to impute values for. I am a little confused how to go about doing this, mostly as I'm not well-versed in it. Do I train the SOM with a data object that contains just the first 10 variables

I would really like some or any advice on how I can improve (or fix??) the following analysis. I hope I have provided a completely runnable code - it doesn't produce any errors for me. The resulting plot at the end shows a pretty poor correlation (just speaking visually here) to the test set. How can I improve the performance of the mapping and prediction? Here are some of the data

HI, Dear R community, I am using the following codes to do the som. I tried to label the notes by the majority vote. either through mapping or prediction. I attached my output, the left one dont have any labels in the note, the right one has more than one label in each note. I need to have only one label for each note either by majority vote or prediction. Can anyone give some suggestions or

somfunc<- function (file) { aa_som<-scale(file) final.som<-som(data=aa_som, rlen=10000, grid=somgrid(5,4, "hexagonal")) pdf(file="/home/cdu/changbin/file.pdf") #output graphic file. plot(final.som, main="Unsupervised SOM") dev.off() } I have many different files, if I want output pdf file with the same name as for each dataset I feed to the function

Hi everybody! I try to implements Self-Organizing Maps with R and the Kohonen package. I have made an algorithm that try differents width and height. For each step, Silhouette index, Davies-Bouldin index and Dunn index are computed. However, there is always after severals minutes a *Runtime error* appears on the window: Microsoft visual c++ runtime library "this application has requested

Hello R users, I'm using SOM() to cluster a gene expression data set the syntax i used was dataGrid <- c(somgrid(xdim = 3, ydim = 3, topo = c("rectangular","hexagonal"))) dataClusters <- SOM(dataMatrix, grid = dataGrid) plot(dataClusters) it seems that this works just fine but the thing i can't figure out is how to determine where each data point has been

I am trying to understand how the SOM algorithm works using library(class) SOM function. I have a 1000*10 matrix and I want to be able to summarize the different types of 10-element vectors. In my real world case it is likely that most of the 1000 values are of one kind the rest of other (this is an oversimplification). Say for example: InputA<-matrix(cos(1:10),nrow=900,ncol=10,byrow=TRUE)

Hi. Three years ago, I've read the question of availability of SOM library for R using Kohonen's SOM_PAK in this mailing-list. This answer was no availability. And no package dealing with SOM in CRAN. Is this situation same? Could you tell me availability this library? Best Regards.

Hi All, I am experimenting with using binary data (1, 0) in the kohonen package. I would like either 1 or 0 to be mapped in SOM, but the package gives me 1 or 0 (as expected), but something in between. I am not scaling the binary data, but still there are in-between values. Can anybody suggest a way to keep the data binary, even in the SOM plot? Thanks a lot. George

hi all, i would like to apply the kohonen 's algorithm (SOM).

Hi all, I have a question about the SOM routine. You can either supply the initial representatives for the lattice yourself or else they are chosen randomly from the dataset. Is it possible to pass the random-seed as an argument somehow, when choosing the random initialisation of the lattice? As it is now, each time I run a SOM on a dataset with the same settings the resulting SOM will still

Has the algorithm used by batchSOM for hexagonal topology changed in some way between R 1.9.1 and 2.0.1? In comparing between the two versions, I get identical results for rectangular topology, but very different results for hexagonal topology. (I tried to find release notes for the VR bundle that might explain the changes, but was unable to locate these anywhere.) Here's the script I

Does anyone know of any SOM library for R? or any stand alone freeware? A search from google returns SOM_PAK 3.1 developed at Helsinki University of Technology. Is there newer version?

Hola, alguien me puede decir cómo descargar la librería "kohonen", pues lo he intentado con download.packages y no hay forma. No sé si es porque pongo mal el directorio de destino o porque esa librería esta dentro de otra y no la localizo. Ya he usado en otras ocasiones el comando download.packages y no me había dado problemas gracias [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi All, I'm looking for some reference paper about SOM (self organizing map) algorithm. I tried the paper which is mentioned in the help page of function "som (package:som)": http://www.cis.hut.fi/research/papers/som_tr96.ps.Z But I can't open it for some reason. Could you please help me with it ? Thanks a lot! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear list, I read the SOM package manual but I don't understand how to perform (for example) 1) the SOM analysis on Iris data 2) with a visualization similar to that of figure 7 in http://www.cis.hut.fi/projects/somtoolbox/package/papers/techrep.pdf Any suggestion?
