Performance Measures for Nn-classiiers
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper introduces Bayesian classiication, measurement of classiication costs by loss functionals and methods for estimation of loss when the true classiication rules are unknown. Cross-validation and several bootstrap methods are reviewed and compared using two artiicial examples.

Submitted to CVPR ' 99 Bayesian based Optimal Nearest Neighbor
Nearest neighbor rules are popular classiiers, partly due to their good asymptotic properties. Improving the performance of NN rules when only nite samples are available has been studied over the last two decades. For example, smart distance measures which are data dependent have been proposed. From a theoretical point of view, one is interested in deriving the optimal NN distance measure. Exis...
متن کاملCombining Nearest Neighbor Classi ers Through Multiple
Combining multiple classiiers is an eeective technique for improving accuracy. There are many general combining algorithms, such as Bagging or Error Correcting Output Coding, that signiicantly improve classiiers like decision trees, rule learners, or neural networks. Unfortunately, many combining methods do not improve the nearest neighbor classiier. In this paper, we present MFS, a combining a...

متن کاملClassiication with Learning K-nearest Neighbors
The nearest neighbor (NN) classiiers, especially the k-NN algorithm, are among the simplest and yet most eecient classiication rules and are widely used in practice. We introduce three adaptation rules that can be used in iterative training of a k-NN classiier. This is a novel approach both from the statistical pattern recognition and the supervised neural network learning points of view. The s...
متن کاملPrediction of the waste stabilization pond performance using linear multiple regression and multi-layer perceptron neural network: a case study of Birjand, Iran
Background: Data mining (DM) is an approach used in extracting valuable information from environmental processes. This research depicts a DM approach used in extracting some information from influent and effluent wastewater characteristic data of a waste stabilization pond (WSP) in Birjand, a city in Eastern Iran. Methods: Multiple regression (MR) and neural network (NN) models were examined u...
