Binary input data #15

Open pnitsche opened 8 years ago

pnitsche commented 8 years ago

I was wondering how to deal with binary coded input data, when other distance measurement metrics than Euclidean are necessary. Are there any functions supporting e.g. Hamming or Jaccard distance metrics? or: Where can I specify those?

I look forward to receiving any response to decide if I should further use it for my project Thanks for your support (i am a SOM newbie...forgive me)!

SOM toolbox doesn't have other distance metrics like dot product implemented. The assumption is Euclidean distance.
