Efficient Similarity Search in Nonmetric Spaces with Local Constant Embedding
Similarity-based search has been a key factor for many applications such as multimedia retrieval, data mining, Web search and retrieval, and so on. There are two important issues r...

Peer-to-Peer Similarity Search in Metric Spaces
This paper addresses the efficient processing of similarity queries in metric spaces, where data is horizontally distributed across a P2P network. The proposed approach does not r...

A Cost Model for Similarity Queries in Metric Spaces
We consider the problem of estimating CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for processing range and k-nearest neighbors queries over metric spaces. Unlike the specific case ...

On Index-Free Similarity Search in Metric Spaces
Metric access methods (MAMs) serve as a tool for speeding similarity queries. However, all MAMs developed so far are index-based; they need to build an index on a given database. T...
