Classification based on k-nearest neighbors (kNN classification) is one of the most widely used classification methods. The number k of nearest neighbors used for achieving a high ...
For an increasing number of modern database applications, efficient support of similarity search becomes an important task. Along with the complexity of the objects such as images...
Background: As a variety of functional genomic and proteomic techniques become available, there is an increasing need for functional analysis methodologies that integrate heteroge...
Abstract-Similarity searching often reduces to finding the k nearest neighbors to a query object. Finding the k nearest neighbors is achieved by applying either a depth-first or a ...
: 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...
