Hi;

datamining question:
----------------------
my input data table is of size 1000-rows, 2000-columns. 
each column represents one features. one of the columns represent a categorical features with 900 levels.

i would like to apply KNN / distance matrix on the table rows, while preserving right treatment for this categorical column and the other numerical columns.

i understand that "gower" distance might fulfill this purpose if used, but i read that matrix/table need to be numerical in case "daisy" is being used for example. 

what is the right technique in such case?

Thanks
Rami
