: 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...
Some fast nearest neighbor search (NNS) algorithms using metric properties have appeared in the last years for reducing computational cost. Depending on the structure used to store...
In this paper, we propose a new data reduction algorithm that iteratively selects some samples and ignores others that can be absorbed, or represented, by those selected. This alg...
We present a novel algorithm for computing a training set consistent subset for the nearest neighbor decision rule. The algorithm, called FCNN rule, has some desirable properties....
In recent years, the increasing interest in fuzzy rough set theory has allowed the definition of novel accurate methods for feature selection. Although their stand-alone applicati...
