Detailed Description

SOM internal Neuron struct.

The SOM Neuron struct is defined by grid-location vector and prototype vector. In addition, each neuron has a void* meta, that can be used to associate some meta-data with a certain neuron (Note,the pointer meta is not released automatically).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

icl::math::SOM::Neuron::Neuron ( ) [inline]

create a null neuron

icl::math::SOM::Neuron::Neuron	(	vector_type	gridpos,
		vector_type	prototype,
		unsigned int	griddim,
		unsigned int	datadim
	)

create a new neurons with given pointers and dimensions

If the deepCopyData flag is set to true, internally new prototype and gridpos pointers are allocated and filled with the given pointer's data. Otherwise, the ownership of the given pointers is passed to the this neuron.
