Unsupervised learner for implementing neighbor searches.
Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <unsupervised_neighbors>`.
.. versionadded:: 0.9
Parameters ---------- n_neighbors : int, optional (default = 5) Number of neighbors to use by default for :meth:`kneighbors` queries.
radius : float, optional (default = 1.0) Range of parameter space to use by default for :meth:`radius_neighbors` queries.
algorithm : 'auto', 'ball_tree', 'kd_tree', 'brute'
, optional Algorithm used to compute the nearest neighbors:
- 'ball_tree' will use :class:`BallTree`
- 'kd_tree' will use :class:`KDTree`
- 'brute' will use a brute-force search.
- 'auto' will attempt to decide the most appropriate algorithm based on the values passed to :meth:`fit` method.
Note: fitting on sparse input will override the setting of this parameter, using brute force.
leaf_size : int, optional (default = 30) Leaf size passed to BallTree or KDTree. This can affect the speed of the construction and query, as well as the memory required to store the tree. The optimal value depends on the nature of the problem.
metric : string or callable, default 'minkowski' the distance metric to use for the tree. The default metric is minkowski, and with p=2 is equivalent to the standard Euclidean metric. See the documentation of the DistanceMetric class for a list of available metrics. If metric is "precomputed", X is assumed to be a distance matrix and must be square during fit. X may be a :term:`Glossary <sparse graph>`, in which case only "nonzero" elements may be considered neighbors.
p : integer, optional (default = 2) Parameter for the Minkowski metric from sklearn.metrics.pairwise.pairwise_distances. When p = 1, this is equivalent to using manhattan_distance (l1), and euclidean_distance (l2) for p = 2. For arbitrary p, minkowski_distance (l_p) is used.
metric_params : dict, optional (default = None) Additional keyword arguments for the metric function.
n_jobs : int or None, optional (default=None) The number of parallel jobs to run for neighbors search. ``None`` means 1 unless in a :obj:`joblib.parallel_backend` context. ``-1`` means using all processors. See :term:`Glossary <n_jobs>` for more details.
Attributes ---------- effective_metric_ : string Metric used to compute distances to neighbors.
effective_metric_params_ : dict Parameters for the metric used to compute distances to neighbors.
Examples -------- >>> import numpy as np >>> from sklearn.neighbors import NearestNeighbors >>> samples = [0, 0, 2], [1, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1]
>>> neigh = NearestNeighbors(2, 0.4) >>> neigh.fit(samples) NearestNeighbors(...)
>>> neigh.kneighbors([0, 0, 1.3]
, 2, return_distance=False) array([2, 0]
...)
>>> nbrs = neigh.radius_neighbors([0, 0, 1.3]
, 0.4, return_distance=False) >>> np.asarray(nbrs0
0
) array(2)
