Abstract

Self-organizing incremental neural network (SOINN) is introduced. SOINN is able to represent the topology structure of input data, incrementally learn new knowledge without destroy of learned knowledge, and process online non-stationary data. It is free of prior conditions such as a suitable network structure or network size, and it is also robust to noise. SOINN has been adapted for unsupervised learning, supervised learning, semi-supervised learning, and active learning tasks. Also, SOINN is used for some applications such as associative memory, pattern-based reasoning, word-grounding, gesture recognition, and robotics.
