The primary somatosensory cortex contains a topographic map of the body surface, with two notable discontinuities — the representation of the face is next to that of the hands, ...
Visual recognition faces the difficult problem of recognizing objects despite the multitude of their appearances. Ample neuroscientific evidence shows that the cortex uses a topogr...
We present a generative probabilistic model for the topographic mapping of tree structured data. The model is formulated as constrained mixture of hidden Markov tree models. A nat...
Recently, along with the breakthrough of the Internet and mobile environment, the development towards screen maps used as intelligent user interfaces appears to be emergent. This m...
The Generative Topographic Mapping (GTM) was originally conceived as a probabilistic alternative to the well-known, neural networkinspired, Self-Organizing Maps. The GTM can also ...
