For a metric space $(X, d)$, a family $\mathcal{H}$ of locality sensitive hash functions is called $(r, cr, p_1, p_2)$ sensitive if a randomly chosen function $h\in \mathcal{H}$ has probability at least $p_1$ (at most $p_2$) to map any $a,…

We study the $r$-near neighbors reporting problem ($r$-NN), i.e., reporting \emph{all} points in a high-dimensional point set $S$ that lie within a radius $r$ of a given query point $q$. Our approach builds upon on the locality-sensitive…
