Metric Effects based on Fluctuations in values of k in Nearest Neighbor Regressor (2208.11540v1)

Abstract: Regression branch of Machine Learning purely focuses on prediction of continuous values. The supervised learning branch has many regression based methods with parametric and non-parametric learning models. In this paper we aim to target a very subtle point related to distance based regression model. The distance based model used is K-Nearest Neighbors Regressor which is a supervised non-parametric method. The point that we want to prove is the effect of k parameter of the model and its fluctuations affecting the metrics. The metrics that we use are Root Mean Squared Error and R-Squared Goodness of Fit with their visual representation of values with respect to k values.
