Research on the evaluation of the rural informatization of Jiangsu province based on SOM neural network

In order to promote the development of agricultural modernization, the evaluation of the rural informatization is very significant. By the study of the domestic rural informatization evaluation methods, a new evaluating index system, including 18 indicators, is constructed for Jiangsu province. On the basis of SOM neural network model, which is able to simulate the self-organizing learning without supervision in the training, the index system evaluates the information technology in rural areas of Jiangsu province scientifically. From the evaluation, it is concluded that the overall development of rural informatization in Jiangsu Province, including rural information resource base, information application, information professionals, information production and consumption, is not balanced. The evaluation has a very important significance in guiding the planning and construction of rural informatization.
