Abstract

We introduce relational variants of neural gas, a very efficient and powerful neural clustering algorithm. It is assumed that a similarity or dissimilarity matrix is given which stems from Euclidean distance or dot product, respectively, however, the underlying embedding of points is unknown. In this case, one can equivalently formulate batch optimization in terms of the given similarities or dissimilarities, thus providing a way to transfer batch optimization to relational data. Interestingly, convergence is guaranteed even for general symmetric and nonsingular metrics.
