title = "Genetic optimization of self-organizing feature maps",
abstract = "The authors present an application of the genetic algorithm to the design of Kohonen self-organizing feature maps. The genetic algorithm is used to optimize various parameters of the network model for a given problem. Performance criteria relevant to clustering or vector quantization applications are considered: root mean square (RMS) error and an information-theoretic map entropy measure. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach, and suggest some interesting generalizations.",
