Abstract :
A nonparametric data reduction technique is proposed. Its goal is to select samples that are ``representative´´ of the entire data set. The technique is iterative and is based on the use of a criterion function and nearest neighbor density estimates. Experiments are presented to demonstrate the algorithm.
