Figure 3

Illustration of the classification process made by the SOM and NN.
(a) Training set and prototypes generated after the training of the SOM
(b) SOM: The object to be classified is represented by the circle and the prototypes are represented by the squares
(c) NN: The object under analysis will be compared with the objects represented by the nearest or best match prototype
