KNearestNeighbors Classifier

Classifier implementing the k-nearest neighbors algorithm.

Constructor Parameters

• $k - number of nearest neighbors to scan (default: 3)

$classifier = new KNearestNeighbors($k=4);

Train

To train a classifier simply provide train samples and labels (as array):

$samples = [[1, 3], [1, 4], [2, 4], [3, 1], [4, 1], [4, 2]];
$labels = ['a', 'a', 'a', 'b', 'b', 'b'];

$classifier = new KNearestNeighbors();
$classifier->train($samples, $labels);

Predict

To predict sample class use predict method. You can provide one sample or array of samples:

$classifier->predict([3, 2]);
// return 'b'

$classifier->predict([[3, 2], [1, 5]]);
// return ['b', 'a']
