: The k nearest neighbor classification (k-NN) is a very simple and popular method for classification. However, it suffers from a major drawback, it assumes constant local class po...
In applications like location-based services, sensor monitoring and biological databases, the values of the database items are inherently uncertain in nature. An important query fo...

In the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) classifier, nearest neighbors involve only labeled data. That makes it inappropriate for the data set that includes very few labeled data. In this ...
A k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) query retrieves k objects from a database that are considered to be the closest to a given query point. Numerous techniques have been proposed in the p...
Background: Inference of evolutionary trees using the maximum likelihood principle is NP-hard. Therefore, all practical methods rely on heuristics. The topological transformations...
