scikit-protopy

Prototype Selection and Generation Toolbox based on scikit-learn.

This project was started in 2014 by Dayvid Victor as a result of his masters and on-going PhD at Federal University of Pernambuco.

The aim of this project is to provide Prototype Selection (PS) and Prototype Generation (PG) techniques to be applied where instance reduction is needed (noisy sensitive domains, imbalanced datasets, high density clusters ...).

Right now, this project is referenced in the scikit-learn official wiki (https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/wiki/Third-party-projects-and-code-snippets). Hopefully, the PS/PG techniques might be included in the scikit-learn project anytime soon.

Dependencies

This is designed to work with:

  • Python 2.6+
  • scikit-learn >= 0.14.1
  • Numpy >= 1.3
  • SciPy >= 0.7
  • Matplotlib >= 0.99.1. (for examples, only)

Install

To install, use::

sudo python setup.py install

To install via easy_install, use::

sudo easy_install .

Important References

For all algorithms a reference is provided. But if you are new to PS/PG, we recommend the following papers:

  • Prototype Selection: Garcia, Salvador, et al. "Prototype selection for nearest neighbor classification: Taxonomy and empirical study." Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on 34.3 (2012): 417-435.

  • Prototype Generation: Triguero, Isaac, et al. "A taxonomy and experimental study on prototype generation for nearest neighbor classification." Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, Part C: Applications and Reviews, IEEE Transactions on 42.1 (2012): 86-100.
