ABSTRACT

Feature normalization as a pre-processing step has been widely used in classification problems to reduce the effect of different scale in each feature dimension and error as a result. Most of the existing methods, however, assume some distribution function on feature distribution. Even worse,existing methods do not use the labels of data points and, as a result, do not guarantee the optimality of the normalization results in classification. In this paper, proposed is a supervised rank normalization which combines rank normalization and a supervised learning technique. The proposed method does not assume any feature distribution like rank normalization and uses class labels of nearest neighbors in classification to reduce error. SVM, in particular, tries to draw a decision boundary in the middle of class overlapping zone, the reduction of data density in that area helps SVM to find a decision boundary reducing generalized error. All the things mentioned above can be verified through experimental results
