Fitness functions in editing k-NN reference set by genetic algorithms

نویسنده

  • Ludmila I. Kuncheva
چکیده

-In a previous paper the use of GAs as an editing technique for the k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) classification technique has been suggested. Here we are looking at different fitness functions. An experimental study with the IRIS data set and with a medical data set has been carried out. Best results (smallest subsets with highest test classification accuracy) have been obtained by including in the fitness function a penalizing term accounting tbr the cardinality of the reference set.

A Modified Editing k-nearest Neighbor Rule

Classification of objects is an important area in a variety of fields and applications. Many different methods are available to make a decision in those cases. The knearest neighbor rule (k-NN) is a well-known nonparametric decision procedure. Classification rules based on the k-NN have already been proposed and applied in diverse substantive areas. The editing k-NN proposed by Wilson would be ...

Data Clustring Using A New CGA(Chaotic-Generic Algorithm) Approach

Clustering is the process of dividing a set of input data into a number of subgroups. The members of each subgroup are similar to each other but different from members of other subgroups. The genetic algorithm has enjoyed many applications in clustering data. One of these applications is the clustering of images. The problem with the earlier methods used in clustering images was in selecting in...

Editing for the k-nearest neighbors rule by a genetic algorithm

A genetic algorithm is applied for selecting a reference set for the k-Nearest Neighbors rule. The performance has been evaluated on a medical data set by the rotation method. The results are commented together with those obtained with the standard k-NN, random selection, Wilson's technique, and the MULTIEDIT algorithm.

A MLE algorithm for the k-NN HMM system

In this paper, a theoretical framework is proposed for the introduction of the K-NN pdf estimator in an HMM-based speech recognition system. The estimation of the state output probabilities with the K-NN pdf estimator is shown to imply the introduction of a new parameter : the membership coefficient. To learn this coefficient with the Baum-Welch algorithm, a maximum likelihood (ML) reestimation...
