Granger Causality Driven AHP for Feature Weighted kNN

作者：

Highlights：

• Feature weighting for kNN by a multi-criteria based decision analysis tool called AHP.

• Automated weight assignment in criteria matrix of AHP using group-statistics.

• Criteria preference selection in AHP with Granger Causality.

• Superior classification performance over kNN with many other feature weighting/selection methods.
