In this paper, a new competition strategy for learning vector quantization is proposed. The simple competitive strategy used for learning vector quantization moves the winning prototype which is the closest to the newly given data pattern. We propose a new learning strategy based on k-nearest neighbor prototypes as the winning prototypes. The selection of several prototypes as the winning prototypes guarantees that the updating process occurs more frequently. The design is illustrated with the aid of numeric examples that provide a detailed insight into the performance of the proposed learning strategy.

In order to efficiently detect community structure in complex networks, community detection algorithms can be designed from the perspective of node similarity. However, the appropriate parameters should be chosen to achieve community division, furthermore, these existing algorithms based on the similarity of common neighbors have low discrimination between node pairs. To solve the above problems, a noval community detection algorithm using closeness similarity based on common neighbor node clustering entropy is proposed, shorted as CSCDA. Firstly, to improve detection accuracy, common neighbors and clustering coefficient are combined in the form of entropy, then a new closeness similarity measure is proposed. Through the designed similarity measure, the closeness similar node set of each node can be further accurately identified. Secondly, to reduce the randomness of the community detection result, based on the closeness similar node set, the node leadership is used to determine the most closeness similar first-order neighbor node for merging to create the initial communities. Thirdly, for the difficult problem of parameter selection in existing algorithms, the merging of two levels is used to iteratively detect the final communities with the idea of modularity optimization. Finally, experiments show that the normalized mutual information values are increased by an average of 8.06% and 5.94% on two scales of synthetic networks and real-world networks with real communities, and modularity is increased by an average of 0.80% on the real-world networks without real communities.

Feature selection and feature weighting are useful techniques for improving the classification accuracy of k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) classifier. The main propose of feature selection and feature weighting is to reduce the number of features, by eliminating irrelevant and redundant features, while simultaneously maintaining or enhancing classification accuracy. In this paper, a novel hybrid approach is proposed for simultaneous feature selection, feature weighting and choice of k in k-NN classifier based on Genetic Algorithm. The results have indicated that the proposed algorithm is quite comparable with and superior to existing classifiers with or without feature selection and feature weighting capability.

With the increasing use of the Internet and electronic documents, automatic text categorization becomes imperative. Several machine learning algorithms have been proposed for text categorization. The k-nearest neighbor algorithm (kNN) is known to be one of the best state of the art classifiers when used for text categorization. However, kNN suffers from limitations such as high computation when classifying new instances. Instance selection techniques have emerged as highly competitive methods to improve kNN through data reduction. However previous works have evaluated those approaches only on structured datasets. In addition, their performance has not been examined over the text categorization domain where the dimensionality and size of the dataset is very high. Motivated by these observations, this paper investigates and analyzes the impact of instance selection on kNN-based text categorization in terms of various aspects such as classification accuracy, classification efficiency, and data reduction.

Color image scale captures the knowledge of colorists and represents both adjectives and colors in the same adjective image scales in order to select color(s) corresponding to an adjective. Due to the difficulty of psychological experiment and statistical analysis, in general, only a limited number of colors are located in the color image scales. This can make color selection process hard especially to non-expert. In this paper, we propose an interpolation of color image scale based on the fuzzy K-nearest neighbor method, which provides continuous colors according to the coordinates of the image scales. The experimental results show that the interpolated image scales can be practically useful for color selection process.

The preferred feature selection methods for text classification are filter-based. In a common filter-based feature selection scheme, unique scores are assigned to features; then, these features are sorted according to their scores. The last step is to add the top-N features to the feature set. In this paper, we propose an improved global feature selection scheme wherein its last step is modified to obtain a more representative feature set. The proposed method aims to improve the classification performance of global feature selection methods by creating a feature set representing all classes almost equally. For this purpose, a local feature selection method is used in the proposed method to label features according to their discriminative power on classes; these labels are used while producing the feature sets. Experimental results obtained using the well-known 20 Newsgroups and Reuters-21578 datasets with the k-nearest neighbor algorithm and a support vector machine indicate that the proposed method improves the classification performance in terms of a widely known metric ($F_1$).

Sensor nodes are easily compromised by attacker when which are divided in open environment. The attacker may inject false report and false vote attack through compromised sensor node. These attacks interrupt to transmission legitimate report or the energy of sensor node is exhausted. PVFS are proposed by Li and Wu for countermeasure in two attacks. The scheme use inefficiency to energy of sensor node as fixed report threshold and verification node. In this paper, our propose the next neighbor node selection scheme based on fuzzy logic system for energy improvement of PVFS. The parameter of fuzzy logic system are energy, hops, verification success count, CH select high the next neighbor node among neighbor nodes of two as deduction based on fuzzy logic system. In the experimental, our proposed scheme was improvement to energy of about 9% compare to PVFS.

The classification error of 'ㅁ', 'ㅇ' is one of the main causes of incorrect recognition in Korean characters, but there haven't been enough researches to solve this problem. In this paper, a new feature extraction method from Korean grapheme is proposed to recognize 'ㅁ', 'ㅇ'effectively. First, we defined an optimal neighbor-distance selection measure using modified Hausdorff distance, which we determined the optimal neighbor-distance by. And we extracted neighbor-angle feature which was used as the effective feature to classify the two graphemes 'ㅁ', 'ㅇ'. Experimental results show that the proposed feature extraction method worked efficiently with the small number of features and could recognize the untrained patterns better than the conventional methods. It proves that the proposed method has a generality and stability for pattern recognition.

Traffic speed is an important measure in transportation. It can be employed for various purposes, including traffic congestion detection, travel time estimation, and road design. Consequently, accurate speed prediction is essential in the development of intelligent transportation systems. In this paper, we present an analysis and speed prediction of a certain road section in Busan, South Korea. In previous works, only historical data of the target link are used for prediction. Here, we extract features from real traffic data by considering the neighboring links. After obtaining the candidate features, linear regression, model tree, and k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) are employed for both feature selection and speed prediction. The experiment results show that k-NN outperforms model tree and linear regression for the given dataset. Compared to the other predictors, k-NN significantly reduces the error measures that we use, including mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and root mean square error (RMSE).

This study is about the k-nearest neighbor-based approach for the estimation of mutual information when the type of target variable is categorical and continuous. The results of Monte-Carlo simulation and experiments with real-world data show that k=1 is preferable. In practical application with real world data, our study shows that jittering and bootstrapping is needed.
