Nearest neighbor (NN) queries have been extended from Euclidean spaces to road networks. Existing approaches are either based on Dijkstra-like network expansion or NN/distance prec...
Similarity search methods are widely used as kernels in various data mining and machine learning applications including those in computational biology, web search/clustering. Near...
Abstract. Kernel based methods (such as k-nearest neighbors classifiers) for AI tasks translate the classification problem into a proximity search problem, in a space that is usu...
We present a near linear time algorithm for constructing hierarchical nets in finite metric spaces with constant doubling dimension. This data-structure is then applied to obtain...
In this paper, we propose an approach for efficient approximative RkNN search in arbitrary metric spaces where the value of k is specified at query time. Our method uses an approx...
