Abstract

We develop a modified algorithm of the self-organizing map invented by T. Kohonen that is formally based on the numerical solution of a two-dimensional wave equation derived from the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. With this, we offer a model that can be used to justify the Kohonen algorithm from quantum physics. The Kohonen algorithm therefore is a principal progress in neural network research. As the algorithm operates in a local and parallel way it is very adequate for an implementation in microelectronics.
