Bagging and random feature subsets are used simultaneously to achieve maximum diversity among k-NN component experts in a fusion system. Experimental results indicate that for certain data the combination of the two design methods in a fusion system is beneficial. We also compare two random feature subset design methods, a widely used, conventional, expert based method and a system based design...

This paper provides the first solution to the kinetic reverse k-nearest neighbor (RkNN) problem in R, which is defined as follows: Given a set P of n moving points in arbitrary but fixed dimension d, an integer k, and a query point q / ∈ P at any time t, report all the points p ∈ P for which q is one of the k-nearest neighbors of p.

3D human action recognition is an important current challenge at the heart of many research areas lying to the modeling of the spatio-temporal information. In this paper, we propose representing human actions using spatio-temporal motion trajectories. In the proposed approach, each trajectory consists of one motion channel corresponding to the evolution of the 3D position of all joint coordinat...

We provide finite-sample analysis of a general framework for using k-nearest neighbor statistics to estimate functionals of a nonparametric continuous probability density, including entropies and divergences. Rather than plugging a consistent density estimate (which requires k → ∞ as the sample size n → ∞) into the functional of interest, the estimators we consider fix k and perform a bias corr...

The performance of a fuzzy k-NN rule depends on the number k and a fuzzy membership-array W[I, mR], where l and m R denote the number of classes and the number of elements in the reference set X R respectively. The proposed learning procedure consists in iterative finding such k and W which minimize the error rate estimated by the 'leaving one out' method.
