Deciding how to improve the performance

To improve on this, we basically have the following options:

  • Add more data: Maybe there is just not enough data for the learning algorithm; adding more training data should help.
  • Play with the model complexity: Maybe the model is not complex enough? Or maybe it is already too complex? In this case, we could decrease k so that it would take fewer nearest-neighbors into account and thus be better at predicting non-smooth data. Or we could increase it to achieve the opposite.
  • Modify the feature space: Maybe we do not have the right set of features? We could be missing some important aspect of the posts. Or should we remove some of our current features in case some features are aliasing others?
  • Change ...
