This paper examines the mutlivariate nearest neighbor forecasting model which considers the volume traded as well as the stock price. The empirical results using the data from KOSPI indicate that the predictive power of the nearest neighbor model increases as the model becomes mutlivariate.

I review the dependence of galaxy properties on environmental parameters such as the local density, nearest neighbor distance and morphology. We find that a galaxy with an early- or late-type nearest companion within its virial radius tends to be an early or late type, respectively. The morphology of galaxies located in high density regions tends to be the same as that of the ones in low density regions if their luminosity and the nearest neighbor environment are the same. This strongly supports that galaxy morphology and luminosity evolution have been driven mainly by galaxy-galaxy interactions, and the background density affected morphology and luminosity only through the frequency of interactions.

Recently, as growing of interest for LBS(location-based services) techniques, lots of works on moving objects that continuously change their information over time, have been performed briskly. Also, researches for NN(nearest neighbor) query which has often been used in LBS, are progressed variously However, the results of conventional NN Query processing techniques may be invalidated as the query and data objects move. Therefore, they are usually meaningless in moving object management system such as LBS. To solve these problems, in this paper we propose a new nearest neighbor query processing technique, called CTNN, which is possible to meet accurate and continuous query processing for moving objects. Our techniques include an Approximate CTNN(ACTNN) technique, which has quick response time, and an Exact CTNN(ECTNN) technique, which makes it possible to search nearest neighbor objects accurately. In order to evaluate the proposed techniques, we experimented with various datasets. Experimental results showed that the ECTNN technique has high accuracy, but has a little low performance for response time. Also the ACTNN technique has low accuracy comparing with the ECTNN, but has quick response time The proposed techniques can be applied to navigation system, traffic control system, distribution information system, etc., and specially are most suitable when both data and query are moving objects and when we already know their trajectory.

Object recognition techniques using principal component analysis are disposed to be decreased recognition rate when lighting change of image happens. The purpose of this thesis is to propose an object recognition technique using new PCA analysis method that discriminates an object in database even in the case that the variation of illumination in training images exists. And the object recognition algorithm proposed here represents more enhanced recognition rate using improved k-Nearest Neighbor. In this thesis, we proposed an object recognition algorithm which creates object space by pre-processing and being learned image using histogram equalization and median filter. By spreading histogram of test image using histogram equalization, the effect to change of illumination is reduced. This method is stronger to change of illumination than basic PCA method and normalization, and almost removes effect of illumination, therefore almost maintains constant good recognition rate. And, it compares ingredient projected test image into object space with distance of representative value and recognizes after representative value of each object in model image is made. Each model images is used in recognition unit about some continual input image using improved k-Nearest Neighbor in this thesis because existing method have many errors about distance calculation.

In English-Korean machine translation, transitive verb-objective collocation is utilized for accurate translation of an English verbal phrase into Korean. This paper presents an algorithm for correct verb translation based on the k-nearest neighbor learning. The semantic distance is defined on the WordNet for the k-nearest neighbor learning. And we also present algorithms for automatic collocation dictionary optimization. The algorithms extract transitive verb-objective pairs as training examples from large corpora and minimize the examples, considering the tradeoff between translation accuracy and example size. Experiments show that these algorithms optimized collocation dictionary keeping about 90% accuracy for a verb 'build'.

Recently, the query processing algorithm in spatial network database (SNDB) has attracted many interests. However, there is little research on route-based query processing algorithm in SNDB. Since the moving objects moves only in spatial networks, the route-based algorithm is very useful for LBS and Telematics applications. In this paper, we analyze In-Route Nearest Neighbor (IRNN) query, which is an typical one of route-based queries, and propose a new IRNN query processing algorithm with time constraint. In addition, we show from our performance analysis that our IRNN query processing algorithm with time constraint is better on retrieval performance than the existing IRNN query processing one.

In spatial database system, the nearest neighbor query occurs frequently and requires the processing cost higher than other spatial queries do. The number of nodes to be searched in the index can be minimized for optimizing the cost of processing the nearest neighbor query. The optimal search distance is pr9posed for the measurement of a search distance to accurately select the nodes which will be searched in the nearest neighbor query. In this paper, we prove properties of the optimal search distance in N-dimensional. We show through experiments that the performance of query processing of our method is superior to other method using maximum search distance.

Missing data is one of the common problems in building analysis or prediction models using software project data. Missing imputation methods are known to be more effective missing data handling method than deleting methods in small software project data. While K nearest neighbor imputation is a proper missing imputation method in the software project data, it cannot use non-missing information of incomplete project instances. In this paper, we propose an approach to missing data imputation for numerical software project data by combining K nearest neighbor and maximum likelihood estimation; we also extend the average absolute error measure by normalization for accurate evaluation. Our approach overcomes the limitation of K nearest neighbor imputation and outperforms on our real data sets.

Recently, to support LBS(location-based services) and telematics applications efficiently, there have been many researches which consider the spatial network instead of Euclidean space. However, existing range query and k-nearest neighbor query algorithms show a linear decrease in performance as the value of radius and k is increased. In this paper, to increase the performance of query processing algorithm, we propose materialization-based range and k-nearest neighbor algorithms. In addition, we make the performance comparison to show the proposed algorithm achieves better retrieval performance than the existing algorithm.

Recently, query processing techniques for the multi-dimensional data like images have been widely used to perform content-based retrieval of the data . Range query and Nearest neighbor query are widely used multi dimensional queries . This paper Proposes the efficient pruning strategies for k-nearest neighbor query in R-tree variants indexing structures. Pruning strategy is important for the multi-dimensional indexing query processing so that search space can be reduced. We analyzed the Pruning strategies and perform experiments to show overhead and the profit of the strategies. Finally, we propose best use of the strategies.
