# Intel® Threading Building Blocks.
Self-Organizing Map (SOM) sample

The Self-Organizing Map demonstrates tbb::flow and the use of cancellation in scheduling multiple iterations of map updates.
For tutorials on Self-organizing Maps, see here and here.
The program trains the map with several examples, splitting the map into subsections and looking for best-match for multiple examples. When an example is used to update the map, the graphs examining the sections being updated for the next example are cancelled and restarted after the update.
