In recent years, many nearest neighbor algorithms based on fuzzy sets theory have been developed. These methods form a field, known as fuzzy nearest neighbor classification, which is the source of many proposals for the enhancement of the k nearest neighbor classifier. Fuzzy sets theory and several extensions, including fuzzy rough sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, type-2 fuzzy sets and possibil...

The aim of our research is to classify digital mammograms into two classes, abnormal microcalcification and normal. Texture is one of the major mammographic characteristics. The statistical textural of Gray Level Coocurrence Matrix (GLCM) used in characterizing images are contrast, energy and entropy. K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) and Fuzzy K-Nearest Neighbor (FK-NN) was proposed for classifying im...

This paper is a survey of fuzzy set theory applied in cluster analysis. These fuzzy clustering algorithms have been widely studied and applied in a variety of substantive areas. They also become the major techniques in cluster analysis. In this paper, we give a survey of fuzzy clustering in three categories. The first category is the fuzzy clustering based on fuzzy relation. The second one is t...

land cover information is one of the most important prerequisite in urban management system. in this way remote sensing, as the most economic technology, is mainly used to produce land cover maps. considering the complicated and dense urban areas in third world countries, object based approaches are suggested as an effective image processing technique. the purpose of this paper are the introduc...

Learning from imbalanced data is one of the burning issues of the era. Traditional classification methods exhibit degradation in their performances while dealing with imbalanced data sets due to skewed distribution of data into classes. Among various suggested solutions, instance based weighted approaches secured the space in such cases. In this paper, we are proposing a new fuzzy weighted near...

in this work, one and two-dimensional lattices are studied theoretically by a statistical mechanical approach. the nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions are both taken into account, and the approximate thermodynamic properties of the lattices are calculated. the results of our calculations show that: (1) even though the next-nearest neighbor interaction may have an insignificant effect...

tizzy k nearest neighbor rule (k-NNR) has been applied in a variety of substantive areas. Yang and Chen [l] described a fuzzy generalized k-NN algorithm which is a unified approach to a variety of fuzzy k-NNR’s. They created the strong consistency of posterior risk of the fuzzy generalized NNR. In this paper, we give their convergence rate. That is, the convergence rate of posterior risk of the...

Because of the massive increase in the size of the data it becomes troublesome to perform effective analysis using the current traditional techniques. Big data put forward a lot of challenges due to its several characteristics like volume, velocity, variety, variability, value and complexity. Today there is not only a necessity for efficient data mining techniques to process large volume of dat...

K-nearest-neighbor query is an important query in uncertain network, which is finding the k close nodes to a specific node. We first put forward the concept of the credible nearest neighbor query in uncertain network, and give credible k-nearest-neighbor query algorithm. Credible distance is used to describe the distance between nodes in uncertain network. Fuzzy simulation is adopted to decreas...
