L Boytsov, B Naidan - Similarity Search and Applications: 6th International …, 2013 - Springer
We present a new similarity search library and discuss a variety of design and performance issues related to its development. We adopt a position that engineering is equally important …
Metric space is a universal and versatile model of similarity that can be applied in various areas of information retrieval. However, a general, efficient, and scalable solution for metric …
Nearest neighbor searching of large databases in high-dimensional spaces is inherently difficult due to the curse of dimensionality. A flavor of approximation is, therefore, necessary …
B Naidan, L Boytsov, E Nyberg - arXiv preprint arXiv:1506.03163, 2015 - arxiv.org
We survey permutation-based methods for approximate k-nearest neighbor search. In these methods, every data point is represented by a ranked list of pivots sorted by the distance to …
Surprising as it may seem, many of the early adopters of the object-oriented paradigm already face a number of problems typically encountered in large-scale legacy systems …
We propose a new efficient and accurate technique for generic approximate similarity searching, based on the use of inverted files. We represent each object of a dataset by the …
Visual information retrieval (VIR) is an active and vibrant research area, which attempts at providing means for organizing, indexing, annotating, and retrieving visual information …
