Abstract

We propose a simple approach which, given distributed computing resources, can nearly achieve the accuracy of k-NN prediction, while matching (or improving) the faster prediction time of 1-NN. The approach consists of aggregating denoised 1-NN predictors over a small number of distributed subsamples. We show, both theoretically and experimentally, that small subsample sizes suffice to attain similar performance as k-NN, without sacrificing the computational efficiency of 1-NN.
