This version of the Self Organizing Map competitive learning model doesn't need inhibition:

"One might ask why there are no inhibitory synapses or lateral inhibitory connections in this model. The simplest answer to that is that, unlike in the earlier models, they are not needed for self-organization, as proven here"

"Self-organizing neural projections", Kohonen, 2006

Although other biologically-grounded versions of SOMs incorporate E-I dynamics, like in https://mathematical-neuroscience.springeropen.com/articles/10.1186/s13408-020-00097-6
