K Nearest Neighbor Algorithm

The weighted K-nearest neighbor (WKNN) algorithm is the most commonly used algorithm for indoor localization. Traditional WKNN algorithms adopt received signal strength (RSS) spatial distance (usually Euclidean distance and Manhattan distance) to select reference points (RPs) for position determination. It may lead to inaccurate position estimation because the relationship of received signal strength and distance is exponential. To improve the position accuracy, this paper proposes an improved weighted K-nearest neighbor algorithm. The spatial distance and physical distance of RSS are used for RP selection, and a fusion weighted algorithm based on these two distances is used for position calculation. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms traditional algorithms, such as K-nearest neighbor (KNN), Euclidean distance-based WKNN (E-WKNN), and physical distance-based WKNN (P-WKNN). Compared with the KNN, E-WKNN, and P-WKNN algorithms, the positioning accuracy of the proposed method is improved by about 29.4%, 23.5%, and 20.7%, respectively. Compared with some recently improved WKNN algorithms, our proposed algorithm can also obtain a better positioning performance.

Abstract—The examination results have become an integral part of every student’s life. The educational institution’s ranking is greatly influenced by the university results. This paper mainly focuses on the prediction of a student’s university result by making use of different attributes. These attributes might be of quantitative and qualitative type. The quantitative attributes used are Internal Assessments, Attendance percentage, Number of On-Duties taken and Overall Assignments completed. The qualitative attributes include Subject feedback, Faculty feedback, and whether the student is a Day Scholar/Hosteller. Here, we make use of k-Nearest Neighbor algorithm (or k-NN for short) against the historical data of students for more accurate prediction of results. In this method all the attributes considered are converted to the same scale. This algorithm makes use of the Euclidean distance formula which is used to find the nearest record. This algorithm predicts better results which help students maximize their academic output.

Freight Vehicles

Whether in developing or developed countries, traffic accidents caused by freight vehicles are responsible for more than 10% of deaths of all traffic accidents. Fatigue driving is one of the main causes of freight vehicle accidents. Existing fatigue driving studies mostly use vehicle operating data from experiments or simulation data, exposing certain drawbacks in the validity and reliability of the models used. This study collected a large quantity of real driving data to extract sample data under different fatigue degrees. The parameters of vehicle operating data were selected based on significant driver fatigue degrees. The k-nearest neighbor algorithm was used to establish the detection model of fatigue driving behaviors, taking into account influence of the number of training samples and other parameters in the accuracy of fatigue driving behavior detection. With the collected operating data of 50 freight vehicles in the past month, the fatigue driving behavior detection models based on the k-nearest neighbor algorithm and the commonly used BP neural network proposed in this paper were tested, respectively. The analysis results showed that the accuracy of both models are 75.9%, but the fatigue driving detection model based on the k-nearest neighbor algorithm is more reliable.
