KNN with hand written Hebrew letters
A script for running KNN on handwritten Hebrew letters reaching an accuracy of classifying each letter with 76% accuracy
In order to run the script you need to run it in the terminal the scripts needs a path for the dataset of the hebrew letters and if the path is not given then the script will automatically search in the working diractory . The script uses the Chi Sqaure distance function and K=7 because thats what gave the best reasults at the time of testing. you are free to use the euclidean distance function and any other K by using the arguments --metric and --k at the same time. use --help for more information.
