NNSOM.plots.SOMPlots.plt_top_num

SOMPlots.plt_top_num(mouse_click=False, connect_pick_event=True, **kwargs)[source]

Plots the topology of the SOM with each neuron numbered. This method visualizes each neuron as a hexagon with a number indicating its index, which is useful for identifying and referencing specific neurons during analysis.

Parameters:

  • mouse_click (bool, optional) – If True, enables the plot to respond to mouse clicks, allowing for interaction such as detailed queries or data manipulation associated with specific neurons, by default False.

  • connect_pick_event (bool, optional) – If True, connects a pick event that triggers when a neuron is clicked, by default True.

  • **kwargs (dict) – Arbitrary keyword arguments that can be passed to the event handler onpick when an interactive element is clicked. Common parameters could include data specific to the plot or visualization settings.

Returns:

  • fig (matplotlib.figure.Figure) – The Figure object containing the plot.

  • ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes) – The Axes object containing the plot elements.

  • patches (list) – A list of matplotlib.patches.Patch objects representing the hexagonal units of the SOM.

  • text (list) – A list of matplotlib.text.Text objects displaying the neuron indices.
