Luttrell S P, October 1995, A componential self-organising neural network, DRA technical report (Malvern, UK), DRA/CIS(SE1)/651/11/RP/3
The Bayesian analysis of self-organising maps described in (Luttrell) and the high-dimensional mixture distribution model described in (Luttrell) are used to design a componential self-organising neural network. Numerical simulations demonstrate the emergence of centre-on/surround-off and centre-off/surround-on type neuron responses, and the ability of the network to 'explain' data in terms of multiple 'causes'.
