Dependencies-:

1. Pyevolve==0.6rc1
2. matplotlib==2.0.0
3. numpy==1.12.1
4. pandas==0.18.1

Setup-:

1. pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Edit the params : datasetpath, number_of_columns_csv, features, dataset_name, type_of_problem, data (Change data numpy array, so that, data contains only the relevant features, without the tags and indices)
3. python train.py > dataset.log (This gives the best possible SOM Map Size for your dataset)
4. Results will be present in dataset_name folder in cwd, along with final stats in dataset.log file.
5. python generate_error_plot.py <dataset_name> (Error plot is generated)
6. Visualise the results
