The modular network SOM (mnSOM) proposed by authors is an extension and generalization of a conventional SOM in which each nodal unit is replaced by a module such as a neural network. It is expected that the mnSOM will extend the area of applications beyond that of a conventional SOM. We set out to establish the theory and algorithm of a mnSOM, and to apply it to several research topics, to create a fundamental technology that is generally usable only in expensive studies. In this paper, the theory and the algorithm of the mnSOM are reported; moreover, the results of applications of the mnSOM are presented.
