Class SOMClusterCopyTraining

java.lang.Object

org.encog.ml.train.BasicTraining

org.encog.neural.som.training.clustercopy.SOMClusterCopyTraining

All Implemented Interfaces:

MLTrain

public class SOMClusterCopyTraining
extends BasicTraining

SOM cluster copy is a very simple trainer for SOM's. Using this trainer all of the training data is copied to the SOM weights. This can provide a functional SOM, or can be used as a starting point for training. For now, this trainer will only work if you have equal or fewer training elements to the number of output neurons. Eventually I hope to expand this by using KMeans clustering.

True if the training can be paused, and later continued.

isTrainingDone

public boolean isTrainingDone()

Specified by:

isTrainingDone in interface MLTrain

Overrides:

isTrainingDone in class BasicTraining

Returns:

True if training can progress no further.

getMethod

public final MLMethod getMethod()

Get the current best machine learning method from the training.

Returns:

The best machine learning method.

iteration

public void iteration()

Perform one iteration of training.

pause

public TrainingContinuation pause()

Pause the training to continue later.

Returns:

A training continuation object.

resume

public void resume(TrainingContinuation state)

Resume training.

Parameters:

state - The training continuation object to use to continue.
