-- A Self-generating Model (SGM). An SGM maps input patterns
-- onto a set, where each element in the set is a model of the input
-- data. An SGM is like a Kohonen Self-organising Map (SOM), except:
--
-- * Instead of a grid, it uses a simple set of unconnected models.
--   Since the models are unconnected, only the model that best matches
--   the input is ever updated. This makes it faster, however,
--   topological relationships within the input data are not preserved.
-- * New models are created on-the-fly when no existing model is
--   similar enough to an input pattern. If the SGM is at capacity,
--   the least useful model will be deleted.
--
-- This implementation supports the use of non-numeric patterns.
--
-- In layman's terms, a SGM can be useful when you you want to build
-- a set of models on some data. A tutorial is available at
-- <https://github.com/mhwombat/som/wiki>.
