Exercise 1 (Homework). K-Nearest Neighbor with numeric attributes

A lecturer has missed to mark one exam paper – Isabella’s. He doesn’t have time to mark it and decides to use the k-Nearest Neighbor algorithm to predict Isabella’s exam grade based on her marks for Assignment 1 and Assignment 2 and the performance of the other students in the course, shown in the table below:

student Assignment 1
Assignment 2
Exam grade
Isabella’s assignment marks are: Assignment 1 = 65 and Assignment 2 = 80. What will be the predicted exam grade for Isabella using 1-Nearest Neighbor with Manhattan distance? Show your calculations.
No need to normalize the data, all marks are measured on the same scale – from 0 to 100.
Exercise 2. K-Nearest Neighbor with nominal and numeric attributes
The following dataset describes adults as short, medium and tall based on two attributes: gender and height in meters.
gender height F 1.6
F 1.88 F 1.6 M 1.7 M 2.2 M 2.1 F 1.8 M 1.95
class short tall medium short short short tall
tall medium medium
What would be the prediction of 5-Nearest-Neighbor using Euclidian distance for Maria who is (F, 1.75)? Show your calculations. Do not apply normalization for this exercise (but note that in practical situations you need to do this for the numeric attributes). In case of ties, make random selection.
Hint: gender is nominal attribute; see the lecture slides about how to calculate distance for nominal attributes.

Exercise 3. 1R algorithm
Consider the iPhone dataset given below. There are 4 nominal attributes (age, income, student, and credit_rating) and the class is buys_iPhone with 2 values: yes and no. Predict the class of the following new example using the 1R algorithm: age<=30, income=medium, student=yes, credit-rating=fair. Break ties arbitrary. COMP3308/3608 Artificial Intelligence, s1 2022 age income student credit_rating buys_iPhone <=30 high no fair no <=30 high no excellent no 31..40 high no fair yes >40 medium no fair yes >40 low yes fair yes >40 low yes excellent no 31..40 low yes excellent yes <=30 medium no fair no <=30 low yes fair yes >40 medium yes fair yes <=30 medium yes excellent yes 31..40 medium no excellent yes 31..40 high yes fair yes >40 medium no excellent no

Exercise 4. Using Weka
Weka is an open-source ML software written in Java and developed at the University of Waikato in , for more information see http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/index.html. It is a solid and well-established software written by ML experts.
Install Weka on your own computer at home, it will be required for Assignment 2. Meanwhile we will use it during the tutorials to better understand the ML algorithms we study.
1. Get familiar with Weka (Explorer). Load the weather data with nominal attributes (weather.nominal.arff). The datasets are in \Program Files\Weka-3.8.
2. Choose ZeroR classifier.
3. Choose “Percentage split” as ‘Test option” for evaluation of the classifier: 66% training set, 33% testing set
ZeroR is a very simple ML algorithm (also called “straw man”). It works as follows:
• Nominal class (classification) – determine the most frequent class in the training data most_freq; classification: for every new example (i.e. not in the training data), return most_freq • Numeric class (regression) – determine the average class value in the training data av_value; classification: for every new example (i.e. not in the training data), return av-value
ZeroR is useful to determine the baseline accuracy when comparing with other ML algorithms.
4. Run the IBk algorithm (k-nearest neighbor, IB comes from Instance-Based learning; it is under “Lazy”) with k=1 and 3.
Was IB1 more accurate than IB3 on the test data? Does a higher k mean better accuracy? How does IB1 and IB3 compare with ZeroR in terms of accuracy on test set?

5. Consider IB1. Change “Percentage split” to “Use training data”(i.e. you will build the classifier using the training data and then test it on the same set). What is the accuracy? Why? Would you achieve the same accuracy if IB1 was IBk, for k different than 1?
6. Now load another dataset – iris.arff. Run and compare the same algorithms. Don’t forget to normalize the data (the attributes are numeric). The normalization feature is under Filters-Unsupervised-Attribute- Normalise.
Why we didn’t normalize the weather data when we run IBLk above on the weather data?
7. Select the K-star algorithm, another lazy algorithm, a modification of the standard nearest neighbor. Read its short description (right click on the algorithm’s name -> “Show properties’ -> “More”). Run it and compare the results (accuracy on test set using “Percentage split” again) with the 1 and 3 nearest neighbor algorithms and ZeroR.
8. Now run the 1R algorithm on both the iris and weather.nominal datasets using the same evaluation procedure (“Percentage split”). 1R is under “rules” in Weka and called “OneR”.
What are the rules that 1R formed? How many rules? How many attributes in each rule? Which are these attributes for the two datasets?
9. Compare the accuracy of ZeroR, OneR, 1R, IB1, IBk on the test set. Which was the most accurate classifier?
