What is KNN?

K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) is a simple, non-parametric, and supervised machine learning algorithm used for classification and regression tasks. The algorithm operates on the principle that similar data points are located close to each other in the feature space. To classify a new data point, KNN identifies the 'K' nearest neighbors based on a distance metric, typically Euclidean distance, and assigns the class that is most common among those neighbors. The value of 'K' is a crucial hyperparameter that can significantly affect the model's performance; a smaller 'K' can lead to overfitting, while a larger 'K' may smooth out class boundaries. KNN is particularly useful in scenarios where the decision boundary is not linear and when the dataset is relatively small and easy to manage.
