Outline of the Talk
1. Motivation & Background
Usefulness of the anytime nearest neighbor classifier
for real world applications including fish shape recognition.

3. SimpleRank, the critical ordering method for ANNC
How can we convert conventional nearest neighbor classifier
into the anytime version? What’s the critical intuition?

Interruptability
After some small amount of setup time, the algorithm can be stopped at anytime
and provide an answer

Monotonicity
The quality of the result is a non-decreasing function of computation time

Diminishing returns
The improvement in solution quality is largest at the early stages of computation,
and diminishes over time

Measurable Quality
The quality of an approximate result can be determined
Preemptability
The algorithm can be suspended
and resumed with minimal overhead

Bumble Bee’s Anytime Strategy
“Bumblebees can choose wisely or rapidly, but not both at once.”

To survive
I can perform the best judgment
for finding real nectars

Big Question:
How can we make classifiers
wiser / more rapid
like bees?
Nearest Neighbor Classifiers
Anytime Algorithm + Lazy Learning
[Reasons]
 To the best of our knowledge there is
no “Anytime Nearest Neighbor Classifier” so far.
 Inherently familiar with similarity measures.
 Easily handle time series data by using DTW.
 Robust & accurate

Instance-based, lazy classification algorithm based on training
exemplars.
Giving the class label of the closest training exemplars with
unknown instance based on a certain distance measure.
As for k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) we give the answer by voting.

Plug-in design for any ordering method


Ordering Training Data is critical.
Critical points for classification results
best first or worst last?
 put non-critical points last.
Numerosity Reduction can partially be the good
ordering solutions. The problem is very similar to
ordering problem for anytime algorithms.
Leave-one-out (k=1) within training data
Numerosity Reduction: S must be decidable before classification
Anytime Preprocessing: S does not need to be decidable before classification

because of the round shape.
