How to increase the accuracy?

i am getting 78% accuracy, i have used the same knn algo with vale of k as 13, what else i could be missing?

hey @itzsakshi26gupta ,
there isn’t much things you can with KNN other than changing the value of K.
Achieving 78% with KNN is max you can achieve and its really good.

To further score higher you need to work with other algorithms like SVM , ensemble techniques .
They will help you in it.

You can also try with

  1. feature Selection and Feature Extraction techniques.
    Its not that always that all of the data should be used for training . Sometimes only some features lead us to score higher.
  2. Scaling feature value , if required.
  3. Ofcourse Model now.

ok, thank you so much. I will try these methods
