TabSOM: A tabular-to-image encoding method based on self-organizing maps

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Tabular-to-image methods have emerged as novel approaches to leverage the high predictive performance of convolutional neural networks and vision transformers. They convert tabular data into image representations, mapping each feature at a fixed pixel location derived from a dimensionality-reduction method (e.

VG-TIE: An interpretable tabular-to-image encoding method based on visibility graphs

VG‑TIE is a tabular‑to‑image encoding method that uses Natural and Horizontal Visibility Graphs to map feature values into a two‑dimensional image via PCA. Each pixel represents a feature, its intensity shows deviation from the population mean, and edges encode visibility relationships. The method offers model‑agnostic, intrinsically interpretable images, providing feature ranking through node degree distributions and local/global importance via pixel intensity combined with Grad‑CAM, and demonstrates competitive performance on six public datasets.
