On the website of the Automated Trading Championship 2008, an article Kohonen Maps by the Example ATC 2007 Results has been published. During Automated Trading Championship we obtain large amounts of data. There are numerous ways for the visualization of such data. We constantly study new methods and try to present them to readers. This article offers a presentation of contest results on the basis of Kohonen self-organizing maps. Our regular analyst has drawn several conclusions about Kohonen maps:
Self-organizing maps help visually analyze large data arrays. Data that are in a multi-dimensional space of values are better visualized in a two-dimensional form which is more familiar to us.
Besides, SOMs help detect hidden regularities that we did not try to predict. Very often this is the only possible method to detect and objectively check the existence of relations between data.
The article was published on the website of Automated Trading Championship 2008 in the News section.
