Abstract:
We present an original approach to the design and test of a Syntactical Self-Organizing Map (SSOM). The proposed SSOM is based on Levensthein metrics and it uses a symbolic representation for both the inputs and also the net weights. We have chosen a ring architecture of the map. The software implementation of the experimental model is designed for automatic Romanian-English translation of 1009 words and expressions. We have evaluated the error correction capabilities of the system.
