Hi everyone
I am *very new* to Emergent Self-Organizing Maps.
My area of reseach encompasses school absenteeism. I have a year of
attendance data for several thousand students on a class-by-class basis. The
data looks like this (five classes per day):
Student# Week Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri
1234 2/2/09 ***** ****T ***** EEEEE *****
9/2/09 ***** JJJ** ***** L**LL *****
16/2/09 ***** ***** ***SS ***** *****
...etc
9876 2/2/09 ***** MMMMM ***** ***** *****
9/2/09 ***** ***** ***** ***** QQQQQ
16/2/09 DDD** ***** ***** ***** *****
...etc
An asterisk indicates that the student is present. Letter codes indicate the
type of absence: D (Doctor/Dentist), E (Explained but unjustified), J
(Justified), L (present but Late), M (Medical), Q (school trip or camp), T
(Truant).
I intend coding the attendances/absences into:
-Present
-Late
-Justified (eg other school activity)
-Justified but questionable (eg note from home stating student is unwell)
-Unjustified (E and T)
I want to examine a number of hypotheses about relationships between
individual students' attendance patterns early in the year, and later on.
My supervisor has asked me to investigate whether ESOMs will be a useful
analytical tool in my research. I have downloaded and installed the
Databionic ESOM Tools.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to preprocess my data into a format
suitable for use with the software.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Greg, it should work with Maven 1.x as indicated in the manual. Maven 2 is very different.

Hello, We are having trouble installing ESOM on a unix machine. any tips would be greatly appreciated. It seems the problem may be with maven - we've tried maven 2.2.1, but it doesn't work and doesn't even have a binary called maven. We've tried maven 1.1 and it failed with error: Message: Unrecognised tag: 'license' We removed the license section from project.xml and got the following error: Message: Unrecognised tag: 'jars' We then removed the jars section from project.xml and it did a fair amount of compiling but ultimately failed: >> The build cannot continue because of the following unsatisfied dependencies: - org.apache.velocity:velocity:1.5:jar - org.apache.maven.scm:maven-scm-api:1.0-beta-2:jar - org.apache.maven.scm:maven-scm-provider-cvs:1.0-beta-2:jar - org.apache.maven.scm:maven-scm-provider-svn:1.0-beta-2:jar - org.apache.maven.scm:maven-scm-provider-perforce:1.0-beta-2:jar - org.apache.maven.scm:maven-scm-provider-clearcase:1.0-beta-2:jar - org.apache.maven.scm:maven-scm-provider-starteam:1.0-beta-2:jar Does anyone have any suggestions?

there should be no difference for win 7 on this. check the *.bat files and modify them if needed. the installer should have picked up the java path and put it in there. fabian Chris wrote: > I am having difficulties but I suspect they are for now path related > I might have the structure incorrectly > Can someone please provide precise path instructions > > ESOM is in Programme files in its own sub-directory e.g C:\Program > Files\ESOM > And JRE1.6 is in Programme files also in its own directory > > Thank you > > > __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature > database 4735 (20100101) __________ > > The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. > > http://www.eset.com > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community > Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support > A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy > Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers > http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev > _______________________________________________ > Databionic-ESOM-User mailing list > Dat...@li... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/databionic-esom-user > > |

Richart, the file formats are explained in the user manual: http://databionic-esom.sourceforge.net/user.html#File_formats the names file is used to annotate data points and contains a mapping from the unique data point id to short and long names. if you load it with a trained map you can use the options to display the name of each data point next to the bestmatch on the map. best fabian Richard Clements wrote: > > I am very new to eSOM. > > > > Please tell me where I can find information about the .NAMES file, its > purpose, its format, when and how I use it ? > > > > Where can I see an actual reference file of .NAMES type ? > > > > How can I create a NAMES file within eSOM ? > > > > > > I have looked for days for these answers … sorry .. > > > > DeSio > > > > > > > > __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus > signature database 3515 (20081011) __________ > > The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. > > http://www.eset.com > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Come build with us!

I am very new to eSOM. Please tell me where I can find information about the .NAMES file, its purpose, its format, when and how I use it ? Where can I see an actual reference file of .NAMES type ? How can I create a NAMES file within eSOM ? I have looked for days for these answers . sorry .. DeSio |

Patrick, the tools loads the data and map into memory. with a 32bit jvm you can only allocate about 1.3-1.5GB of memory independent of what is in your machine. with a 64bit jvm more is possible. the code could be changed to not load the data into memory to deal with larger files. the standard SOM algorithms we implemented to not accept a distance matrix as an input but repeatedly use the data to train the map. I know there are distance matrix algorithms but they are not in our tool. not that distance matrix methods have a complexity of O(n^2) while the standard SOM algorithms have O(n). Of course for particular datasets either one could be faster, in particular for extremely high dimensionality as you have described. yes you can save a png of the maps. hope this helps fabian Patrick De Maziere wrote: > Hello, > > I want to use the ESOM tools starting from a distance matrix since I question > whether the tools can handle > 7000 vectors with a dimensionality > 800000.

Hello, I just installed the ESOM Tools on my computer running Windows Vista, and had some initial problems starting the software. I got an error message: C:\Windows\system32\ntvdm.exe Error while setting up environment for the application. I found that adding -Dos.name=Windows.XP to the esomstart.bat file solved the problem. Apparently, java does not recognize vista as a new windows version and tries to run command.com instead of cmd.exe. I.e., the last line of esomstart.bat should read: call java -cp "%LOCALCLASSPATH%" -Dos.name=Windows.XP -Xmx512m %MAIN% %%* I thought that this might be useful for other potential users. /Pär =========================================== Pär Matsson, PhD Postdoctoral Scholar Department of Bioengineering and Therapeutic Sciences Box 2911 , 1550 4th Street, Bldg 19B RH584 University of California, San Francisco San Francisco, CA. 94143 - 2911 |

Hello, I want to use the ESOM tools starting from a distance matrix since I question whether the tools can handle > 7000 vectors with a dimensionality > 800000. I used the Euclidean distance metric to construct that distance matrix but I now wonder what the next steps are to create a U-matrix map and if I can run everything from batch (another program is dealing with these huge datasets and with the visualisation of any result). So, I like also to know whether I can "export" the U-map to a PNG or other graphic format. (I tried with a smaller data set (100 vectors, dimension +/- 50000, but even then he sometimes fails due to memory problems: out of memory, and setting the memory parameter in the script to more than 3GB, e.g., Xmx4096m resulted in an error (of the program?) that he could not handle such sizes ....)

Richard, there are no restrictions in the code per se, but - all data and the map weights are kept in memory so you are limited by what your j*v*m can do - the training time is linear in both numer of records and *variables* best fabian Richard Clements wrote:m > *What is the maximum number of (a) records, and also the maximum > number of (b) variables allowed in the eSOM ?* > ** > *Are there any size constraints on the data source files ( points or > attributes ) ?* > ** > *thanks* > ** > * - richard* > ** > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and > around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save > $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. > 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.

Amphun, as far as I know, the U*Matrix has not been implemented in the Java tools but you can get a Matlab version from Prof Ultsch. What do you mean with validation? Since it's an unsupervised method you could use the quantization error to measure the approximation quality. You also use a method to obtain clusters from the map and use cluster validity mearues. You could use a class mask to classify unseen data and measure classification accuracy. Finally you could compare maps to measure the reprocability. What do you want to measure? best fabian Amphun Chaiboonchoe wrote: > Dear All, > > I am new for ESOM, I start analyze my data with ESOM. > I wonder how can I see the U*-Matrix, at visualization tool I only found U-Matrix and P-Matrix. > > Another question is, which is the best validation index for ESOM.

the distance functions may be a little hard to find. they are not in the main source code but in the modified colt library that resides in a separate directory of the cvs. implementing your own functions is straightforward. just add them to colt and extend the command line handling in the DistanceFactory. for the UI you need to change the xml file that defines the training dialog. let us know if you have more questions or want to commit something. fabian Niko Efthymiou wrote: > On 0, "Manning, Kevin" <Kev...@ni...> wrote: > >> Are there any plans to add an implementation of the Mahalanobis distance >> calculation or a weighted Mahalanobis calculation?

Just look at the Euclid implementation in the esom source. Greets Niko |

Are there any plans to add an implementation of the Mahalanobis distance calculation or a weighted Mahalanobis calculation? I have an implementation of the calculation (not using colt or esom) but it is extremely inefficient for large datasets. I haven't yet been able to get enough of a handle on the colt or esom API's to try to implement it myself. Thanks, Kevin |

Richard, the only restriction in the software is that a dataset is needs to be loaded into memory for training and the map is also held in memory. On a 32bit JVM this restricts it to about 1.3GB (for data and map) but on a 64bit JVM you could utilize much more of your memory as available. with increaing numbers of attributes and points the speed will decrease linearly. version 1.1 contains some training algorithms that provide speedup for large datasets through sampling. i'm not sure if this is fully documented, yet. best fabian Richard Clements wrote: > *What is the maximum number of allowable Vars ( attributes ) for ver 1.1* > ** > *What is the maximum number of records ( data points ) for Ver 1.1* > ** > *Is there a software constraint, or a hardware/memory boundary ?* > ** > *thanks* > ** > * -- richard* > ** > ** > ** > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge > Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes > Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world > http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Databionic-ESOM-User mailing list > Dat...@li... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/databionic-esom-user > |

What is the maximum number of allowable Vars ( attributes ) for ver 1.1 What is the maximum number of records ( data points ) for Ver 1.1 Is there a software constraint, or a hardware/memory boundary ? thanks -- richard |

Richard, please reply to all so the answers are archived. The names file are purely for annotating the maps, not for training. Currently only numerical vectors stored in *.lrn files are supported for training the maps. The names files provide an annotation for each projected data point identified by a unique integer id. For example if you were creating a map of patients, the patient names could be displayed on the map. Irene's example (thanks!) use this to display class names. Note that this could also be accomplished by providing names for each class in the header of the *.cls files. Please read http://databionic-esom.sourceforge.net/user.html#File_formats for more details. bye fabian Irene, Quoting Richard Clements <ric...@ea...>: > Thank you Irene > > I am not even sure 'how' to reply to forum responses such as yours > ... do I reply directly to you ? > > > So I assume that one cannot have a training file of mixed types ??? > i.e., one column of integer, one column of names, another of > integer, another of names ??? > > -- richard > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Irene Kouskoumvekaki > To: dat...@li... > Sent: Monday, October 13, 2008 12:48 AM > Subject: Re: [Databionic-ESOM-User] Need help with .NAMES files > > > Hi Richard, > > > > I have attached here a .name file to show you how it should look > like.
