New kNN graph method improves convergence rate for data analysis

Researchers have developed a new method for constructing k-nearest neighbor (kNN) graphs, which are fundamental in graph-based data analysis. The proposed approach refines the graph affinity calculation by adaptively setting kernel bandwidths based on local data densities. This advancement leads to an improved convergence rate for the kNN graph Laplacian, offering a more precise approximation of the underlying manifold operator. AI

    Improved convergence rate of kNN graph Laplacians: differentiable self-tuned affinity

    arXiv:2410.23212v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In graph-based data analysis, $k$-nearest neighbor ($k$NN) graphs are widely used due to their adaptivity to local data densities. Allowing weighted edges in the graph, the kernelized graph affinity provides a more general type …
