Objective: Diabetes is one of the most common metabolic diseases. Earlier diagnosis of diabetes and treatment of hyperglycemia and related metabolic abnormalities is of vital importance. Diagnosis of diabetes via proper interpretation of the diabetes data is an important classification problem. Classification systems help the clinicians to predict the risk factors that cause the diabetes or pre...

The k-Nearest-Neighbours (kNN) is a simple but effective method for classification. The major drawbacks with respect to kNN are (1) its low efficiency being a lazy learning method prohibits it in many applications such as dynamic web mining for a large repository, and (2) its dependency on the selection of a “good value” for k. In this paper, we propose a novel kNN type method for classificatio...

Interpretability, usability, and boundary points detection of the clustering results are of fundamental importance. The cluster boundary detection is important for many real world applications, such as geo-spatial data analysis and point-based computer graphics. In this paper, we have proposed an efficient solution for finding boundary points in multi-dimensional datasets that uses the BORDER [...

K-nearest neighbors (KNN) method is used in many supervised learning classification problems. Potential Energy (PE) method is also developed for classification problems based on its physical metaphor. The energy potential used in the experiments are Yukawa potential and Gaussian Potential. In this paper, I use both applet and MATLAB program with real life benchmark data to analyze the performan...

Random and natural textures classification is still one of the biggest challenges in the field of image processing and pattern recognition. In this paper, texture feature extraction using Slant Hadamard Transform was studied and compared to other signal processing-based texture classification schemes. A parametric SHT was also introduced and employed for natural textures feature extraction. We ...
