Abstract: The paper presents the results of clusterization by
Kohonen self-organizing maps (SOM) applied for analysis of array of
Raman spectra of multi-component solutions of inorganic salts, for
determination of types of salts present in the solution. It is
demonstrated that use of SOM is a promising method for solution of
clusterization and classification problems in spectroscopy of multicomponent
objects, as attributing a pattern to some cluster may be
used for recognition of component composition of the object.
