 * \brief [Kohonen self organizing
 * map](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-organizing_map) (topological map)
 *
 * \details
 * This example implements a powerful unsupervised learning algorithm called as
 * a self organizing map. The algorithm creates a connected network of weights
 * that closely follows the given data points. This thus creates a topological
 * map of the given data i.e., it maintains the relationship between varipus
 * data points in a much higher dimesional space by creating an equivalent in a
 * 2-dimensional space.

 * src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheAlgorithms/C-Plus-Plus/docs/images/machine_learning/2D_Kohonen_SOM.svg"
 * />
 * \note This C++ version of the program is considerable slower than its [C
 * counterpart](https://github.com/kvedala/C/blob/master/machine_learning/kohonen_som_trace.c)
 * \note The compiled code is much slower when compiled with MS Visual C++ 2019
 * than with GCC on windows
 * \see kohonen_som_trace.cpp

About us

We are a group of programmers helping each other build new things, whether it be writing complex encryption programs, or simple ciphers. Our goal is to work together to document and model beautiful, helpful and interesting algorithms using code. We are an open-source community - anyone can contribute. We check each other's work, communicate and collaborate to solve problems. We strive to be welcoming, respectful, yet make sure that our code follows the latest programming guidelines.
