본 논문에서는 가장 단순한 구조를 가진 Nearest Prototype Classifier의 성능 개선을 위해 차분 진화 알고리즘을 적용하여 prototype의 위치를 결정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 차분 진화 알고리즘을 이용하여 prototype의 위치 벡터가 결정이 되며, 차분 진화 알고리즘에 의해 결정된 prototype의 class label을 결정하기 위한 class label 결정 알고리즘도 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능 평가를 위해 기존의 패턴 분류기와 비교 결과를 보인다. In this paper, we proposed a new design methodology to improve the classification performance of the Nearest Prototype Classifier which is one of the simplest classification algorithm. To optimize the position vectors of the prototypes in the nearest prototype classifier, we use the differential evolutionary algorithm. The optimized position vectors of the prototypes result in the improvement of the classification performance. The new method to determine the class labels of the prototypes, which are defined by the differential evolutionary algorithm, is proposed. In addition, the experimental application covers a comparative analysis including several previously commonly encountered methods.
