Improved Instance Selection Methods for Support Vector Machine Speed Optimization

Algorithm 4

Edge instance selection algorithm.
Notation
= number of dataset instances
= Dataset
= number of nearest neighbors
= Edge
EI = Edge Instances
= Vote for each instance. Vote is an array of size .
Input: , ,
Output: EI
Initialize
(1) For   to
  (1.1) For   to
   (1.1.1) Compute distance between and , where
  (1.2) End  
  (1.3) Select Instance with largest distance
  (1.4) Increment for
(2) End  
(3) Select instance with highest vote
(4) 
(5) For   to
  (5.1) Select -nearest neighbors for EI and save in EI
(6) End  
(7) Return EI
