Non-parametric Nearest Neighbor with Local Adaptation

The k-Nearest Neighbor algorithm (k-NN) uses a classification criterion that depends on the parameter k. Usually, the value of this parameter must be determined by the user. In this paper we present an algorithm based on the NN technique that does not take the value of k from the user. Our approach...
