Classification in asymmetric spaces via sample compression

22 Sep 2019  ·  Lee-Ad Gottlieb, Shira Ozeri ·

We initiate the rigorous study of classification in quasi-metric spaces. These are point sets endowed with a distance function that is non-negative and also satisfies the triangle inequality, but is asymmetric. We develop and refine a learning algorithm for quasi-metrics based on sample compression and nearest neighbor, and prove that it has favorable statistical properties.
