somplot-package: Plot hexagonal Kohonen maps

In somplot: Visualisation of hexagonal Kohonen maps

Description

The package provides a function som.plot() for generating high-quality plots of hexagonal self-organising maps (SOMs), which have been created with Teuvo Kohonen's SOM_PAK software.

Details

Package:	somplot
Type:	Package
Version:	1.6.1
Date:	2013-01-30
License:	GPL
LazyLoad:	yes

Two files are necessary for plotting the result of a SOM_PAK run:

• The output file of visual provides the mapping of input patterns to the codebook vectors.

• The input file holds all patterns of the dataset with class information in the last column.

A visualisation with default parameters can be created by calling the function som.plot( visfile, datfile). The plot can be customised, by providing additional arguments for colouring, scaling, orientation or legend.
