How to find values of the input data in plotsommaphits

I have used SOM tool box in MATLAB or iris data set. following example and using the plotsomhits i can see that how many data values are in each neuron of my neuron grid of the SOM . However I wish to know actual data values which are grouped in every neuron of the given SOM configuration .Is there any way to do it. this is the example I used.

net = selforgmap([8 8]);
view(net)
[net,tr] = train(net,x);
nntraintool
plotsomhits(net,x)

You need to convert vector to indices first and then you can see what input values a neuron correspond to.

>> input_neuron_mapping = vec2ind(net(x))';

Now, look into the neuron's inputs.

For example, you want to see neuron input values for neuron 2.

>> neuron_2_input_indices = find(input_neuron_mapping == 2)
>> neuron_2_input_values = x(neuron_2_input_indices)

It will display all the input values from your data.

not that hard. plotsomhits just plots "fancily" the results of the simulation of the net.

so if you simulate it and add the "hits" you have the result!

basicaly:

hits=sum(sim(net,x)');

In your net case this was my results, that coincide with the numbers in the plotsomehits 

hits= 6     5     0     7    15     7     4     0     8    20     3     3     9     3     0     8     6     3    11     4     5     5     7    10     1
