Title
Feature-weighted k-Nearest Neighbor Classifier
Abstract
This paper proposes a feature weighting method based on X2 statistical test, to be used in conjunction with a k-NN classifier. Results of empirical experiments conducted using data from several knowledge domains are presented and discussed. Forty four out of forty five conducted experiments favoured the feature weighted approach and are empirical evidence that the proposed weighting process based on X2 is a good weighting strategy
