SOMson

Interactive sonification of self-organizing maps

Kohonen Maps, aka. self-organizing maps (SOMs) are neural networks that visualize a high-dimensional feature space on a low-dimensional map. While SOMs are an excellent tool for data examination and exploration, they inherently cause a loss of detail. Visualizations of the underlying data do not integrate well and, therefore, fail to provide an overall picture. Consequently, we suggest SOMson, an interactive sonification of the underlying data, as a data augmentation technique. The sonification increases the amount of information provided simultaneously by the SOM.

Dependencies

This project uses p5.sound (https://github.com/processing/p5.js-sound) for sound synthesis. Further, for proper display, js-colormaps (https://github.com/timothygebhard/js-colormaps) and jQuery (https://github.com/jquery/jquery) are used.

Funding

This research was funded under the Program "Innovative Hochschule" (innovative university) by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) of Germany and the City of Hamburg (Grant No. 13IHS232C).
