Mixed Weighted KNN for Imbalanced Datasets
Qimin Cao · International Journal of Performability Engineering · 2018
It is well known that imbalanced datasets are a common phenomenon and will reduce the accuracy of classification.For solving the class imbalance problem, this paper proposed the mixed weighted KNN algorithm.According to the imbalance between the classes, this algorithm assigns each sample of datasets an inverse proportion weight, and then it combines with the distance weight, making the weight of the training sample close to the test sample greater.In order to improve the operating efficiency and make it easy to handle massive datasets, we implemented the parallelism of MW-KNN based on the Hadoop framework.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is simple and effective.
