WSOM 2012 - 9th Workshop on Self-Organizing Maps

We expect contributions related to the theoretical and
methodological aspects of the self-organizing map including:
* Data analysis and visualization with a special topic of
modeling dynamic phenomena
* Various mathematical approaches including information theory
and mathematical statistics
* Software and hardware implementations
* Architectural solutions including hierarchical and growing
networks, ensemble models and special metrics
* Neuro-cognitive studies that compare modeling and empirical
results at different levels
We also call for scientific and practice-oriented papers that
describe the use of self-organizing maps with variants in different
application areas including but not limited to:
* Data mining
* Pattern recognition
* Signal processing
* Knowledge management
* Time series processing
* Industrial applications
* Bioinformatics
* Biomedical applications
* Telecommunications
* Financial analysis
* Cognitive modeling
* Robotics and intelligent systems
* Image processing and vision
* Speech processing
* Language modeling
* Text and document analysis
