Semi-supervised K-nearest neighbors/Evidence
Method evidence record

Semi-supervised K-nearest neighbors

Semi-supervised KNN extends the classic K-nearest neighbors algorithm to exploit large pools of unlabeled data alongside a small labeled set. By building a KNN graph over all observations and propagating known labels through the graph's edges, the method infers labels for unlabeled points without requiring expensive manual annotation of every sample.
