Question:

Consider a Kohonen self-organizing net (given below) with two cluster units and five input units. The weight vectors for the cluster units are given by

w1 = { 3.0,5.0,7.0,9.0,0.1 }

w2 = { 0.1,9.0,7.0,5.0,3.0 }

Use the square of the Euclidean distance to find the winning cluster unit for the input pattern (x)

x = [ 0.0  5.0  0.1  5.0  0.0 ]

Using learning rate of 0.25, find the new weights for the winning unit.
