Abstract

This work proposes a new algorithm called KNNN (k-nearest neighbours network) and demonstrates its use in a prediction task. The algorithm constructs estimators arranged in layers, using cross validation and kernel smoothing to achieve function approximation. Here it is compared to the back-propagation (with weight-elimination) algorithm in the prediction of future behavior of the benchmark sunspot series. The results show that KNNN can be applied successfully as an estimator.
