Abstract
A data classifier performs a data classification process using prototypes classified into clusters. A prototype map is formed using mapping means and clustering means. The mapping means forms, through learning, a prototype map by adjusting coupling weights between a plurality of prototypes provided in a map space based on a plurality of input data. The clustering means calculates a predetermined measure between the prototypes and classifies the prototypes into a plurality of clusters based on the measure.
