OBJECTIVES
The Self-Organizing Map (SOM) with its related extensions is the most
popular artificial neural algorithm for use in unsupervised learning and
data visualization. Over 5,000 publications have been reported in the open
literature, and many commercial projects employ the SOM as the tool for
solving hard real-world problems.
WSOM'05 is the discussion forum where your ideas and techniques are
polished, and aims to unveil the results of hot researches and popularize
the use of the SOM for technical public.
Following the highly successful meetings held in 1997 and 1999 (Helsinki
University of Technology), 2001 (University of Lincolnshire and
Humberside), 2003 (Kyushu Institute of Technology), a further workshop in
this established series will bring together researchers and users of the
SOM and related techniques.

TOPICS
Topics will include, but are not limited to, the following:

Self-organization
Unsupervised learning (including PCA/NLPCA, ICA/NLICA, Principal
Curves/Surfaces)

Time-series analysis
Text and document analysis
Financial analysis
