Locality-sensitive hashing~[Indyk,Motwani'98] is a classical data structure for approximate nearest neighbor search. It allows, after a close to linear time preprocessing of the input dataset, to find an approximately nearest neighbor of…

Approximate nearest neighbor search under universal L_p metrics (ANNS-U-L_p) is an important and challenging research problem, as it requires answering queries under all possible p (0<p <= 2) values simultaneously without building an index…

Directly solving large-scale Integer Linear Programs (ILPs) using traditional solvers is slow due to their NP-hard nature. While recent frameworks based on Large Neighborhood Search (LNS) can accelerate the solving process, their…
