An improved SOM algorithm and its application to color feature extraction
Abstract: Reducing the redundancy of dominant color features in an image and meanwhile preserving the diversity and quality of extracted colors is of importance in many applications such as image analysis and compression. This paper presents an improved self-organization map (SOM) algorithm namely MFD-SOM and its application to color feature extraction from images. Different from the winner-take-all competitive principle held by conventional SOM algorithms, MFD-SOM prevents, to a certain degree, features of non-principa…

“…At the same time, too large grid size will also lead to longer classification time and will cause the samples that should belong to a group to continue to be subdivided, resulting in classification distortion. Therefore, when defining the mapping value to determine the grid size, the relationship between the expected classification number and the grid size should be considered [35][36][37]. For the sake of experimental efficiency and scientificity, this experiment uses the extracted five principal components as input vectors, defines the mapping size as 3, and the grid size as 3 × 3.…”

“…Artificial neural networks are mathematical modeling of the behavior of biological neural networks [45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54]. These are fewer complex algorithms than biological functioning but are well suited to modeling and solving various problems related to computer vision, chemometry, engineering, etc.…”

“…In [5], L. Chen et al proposed a software implementation of improved SOM algorithm named MFD-SOM. To improve color feature extraction, the authors introduced dynamic adjusting of learning rate and neighbourhood size in function of input data, allowing non-principal components to be more competitive and present in the color codebook at the end of the learning phase.…”
