Prototype methods are machine learning methods that use data prototypes.[1] A data prototype is a data value that reflects other values in its class,[2] e.g., the centroid in a K-means clustering problem.

Methods

edit

The following are some prototype methods[3]

edit

While K-nearest neighbor's does not use prototypes, it is similar to prototype methods like K-means clustering.[4]
