The k-nearest neighbor rule is one of the simplest and most attractive pattern classification algorithms. However, it faces serious challenges when patterns of different classes...
The standard kNN algorithm suffers from two major drawbacks: sensitivity to the parameter value k, i.e., the number of neighbors, and the use of k as a global constant that is ind...
: The k nearest neighbor classification (k-NN) is a very simple and popular method for classification. However, it suffers from a major drawback, it assumes constant local class po...
This paper presents a new method for viewpoint invariant pedestrian recognition problem. We use a metric learning framework to obtain a robust metric for large margin nearest neigh...
