Prototype Selection (PS), which provides NN with a good training set to pick its neighbors from, is an important topic as NN is highly susceptible to noisy data. Accurate state-of-the-art PS methods are generally slow, which motivates us to propose a new PS method, called OWA-FRPS. Based on the Ordered Weighted Average (OWA) fuzzy rough set model, we express the quality of instances, and use a wrapper approach to decide which instances to select. An experimental evaluation shows that OWA-FRPS is significantly more accurate than state-of-the-art PS methods without requiring a high computational cost.}, organization = {Spanish Government TIN2011-28488}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, keywords = {Ordered Weighted Average}, keywords = {Fuzzy rough set}, keywords = {Prototype selection}, keywords = {KNN}, title = {OWA-FRPS: A Prototype Selection method based on Ordered Weighted Average Fuzzy Rough Set Theory}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-642-41218-9_19}, author = {Verbiest, Nele and Cornelis, Chris and Herrera Triguero, Francisco}, }
