This module is a custom implementation of the Large Margin Nearest Neighbor classification scheme of Weinberger, Saul, et al. (2009). It contains an implementation of the k-nearest neighbor and LMNN classifier as well as (most importantly) gradient calculation schemes on the LMNN cost function given a sequential data set and a user-choice of alignment algorithm. This enables users to learn parameters of the alignment distance in question using a gradient descent on the LMNN cost ...
