Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) is a prototype-based supervised classification algorithm. A prototype is an early sample, model,
or release of a product built to test a concept or process. One or more prototypes are used to represent each class in the dataset.
New (unknown) data points are then assigned the class of the prototype that is nearest to them. In order for "nearest" to make
sense, a distance measure has to be defined. There is no limitation on how many prototypes can be used per class, the only
requirement being that there is at least one prototype for each class. LVQ is a special case of an artificial neural network and it
applies a winner-take-all Hebbian learning-based approach. With a small difference, it is similar to Self-Organizing Maps (SOM)
algorithm. SOM and LVQ were invented by Teuvo Kohonen.

Training Algorithm
Step 0: Initialize the reference vectors. This can be done using the following steps.
From the given set of training vectors, take the first "m" (number of clusters) training vectors and use them as weight
vectors, the remaining vectors can be used for training.
Assign the initial weights and classifications randomly.
K-means clustering method.
Set initial learning rate α

D(j) = ∑ ∑(xi − w ij )
i=1 j=1
Step 4: Update the weights on the winning unit, Wj using the following conditions.

if T = Cj then w j (new) = w j (old) + α[x − w j (old)]
Step 6: Test for the stopping condition of the training process. (The stopping conditions may be fixed number of epochs or if
learning rare has reduced to a negligible value.)
