Hi Neha,

See below article.

https://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/12/1/7/pdf

Usage, difference and comparison for SOMPY, SimpSOM, MiniSOM, SOM and few other Self-Organizing Maps(SOM) is well explained there.

For your ease, I have attached Table-1

You can find the detailed implementations and dependency of Python SOM packages in the following post:

Also, for these queries, always search the official Python documentation on the topic of interest:

https://pypi.org/project/som-learn/

Finally, a cookbook link on Python SOM from ML with Python:

Hi Neha ,

It depends on the type of problem you want to use Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) to solve. You can also use Artificial Neural Network package in Matlab where clustering with SOM is very easy to implement. If you need more details refer to the following web page:

Best regards

thanks
