The Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) distance is a popular similarity measure for polygonal curves (i.e., sequences of points). It finds many theoretical and practical applications, especially for temporal data, and is known to be a robust,…

We introduce the discrete Fr\'echet gap and its variants as an alternative measure of similarity between polygonal curves. We believe that for some applications the new measure (and its variants) may better reflect our intuitive notion of…

Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) is an effective method of indexing a set of items to support efficient nearest neighbors queries in high-dimensional spaces. The basic idea of LSH is that similar items should produce hash collisions with…

We present a new data structure for the c-approximate near neighbor problem (ANN) in the Euclidean space. For n points in R^d, our algorithm achieves O(n^{\rho} + d log n) query time and O(n^{1 + \rho} + d log n) space, where \rho <=…

We study the shortcut Fr\'{e}chet distance, a natural variant of the Fr\'{e}chet distance, that allows us to take shortcuts from and to any point along one of the curves. The classic Fr\'echet distance is a bottle-neck distance measure and…

Map matching is a common task when analysing GPS tracks, such as vehicle trajectories. The goal is to match a recorded noisy polygonal curve to a path on the map, usually represented as a geometric graph. The Fr\'echet distance is a…

The Fr\'{e}chet distance is a well-studied similarity measure between curves that is widely used throughout computer science. Motivated by applications where curves stem from paths and walks on an underlying graph (such as a road network),…

Given two simplicial complexes in R^d, and start and end vertices in each complex, we show how to compute curves (in each complex) between these vertices, such that the Fr\'echet distance between these curves is minimized. As a polygonal…

Similarity search in high-dimensional spaces is an important task for many multimedia applications. Due to the notorious curse of dimensionality, approximate nearest neighbor techniques are preferred over exact searching techniques since…

The Euclidean $k$-center problem is a classical problem that has been extensively studied in computer science. Given a set $\mathcal{G}$ of $n$ points in Euclidean space, the problem is to determine a set $\mathcal{C}$ of $k$ centers (not…

In the $(1+\varepsilon,r)$-approximate near-neighbor problem for curves (ANNC) under some distance measure $\delta$, the goal is to construct a data structure for a given set $\mathcal{C}$ of curves that supports approximate near-neighbor…

The discrete Fr\'echet distance is a useful similarity measure for comparing two sequences of points $P=(p_1,\ldots, p_m)$ and $Q=(q_1,\ldots,q_n)$. In many applications, the quality of the matching can be improved if we let $Q$ undergo…

We present a new approach to approximate nearest-neighbor queries in fixed dimension under a variety of non-Euclidean distances. We are given a set $S$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, an approximation parameter $\varepsilon > 0$, and a…

All known algorithms for the Fr\'echet distance between curves proceed in two steps: first, they construct an efficient oracle for the decision version; second, they use this oracle to find the optimum from a finite set of critical values.…

Locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) is an important tool for managing high-dimensional noisy or uncertain data, for example in connection with data cleaning (similarity join) and noise-robust search (similarity search). However, for a number…

This paper describes an implementation of fast near-neighbours queries (also known as range searching) with respect to the Fr\'echet distance. The algorithm is designed to be efficient on practical data such as GPS trajectories. Our…

We consider the problem of computing the Fr\'echet distance between two curves for which the exact locations of the vertices are unknown. Each vertex may be placed in a given uncertainty region for that vertex, and the objective is to place…

We introduce an orientation-preserving landmark-based distance for continuous curves, which can be viewed as an alternative to the \Frechet or Dynamic Time Warping distances. This measure retains many of the properties of those measures,…

Approximate nearest-neighbor search is a fundamental algorithmic problem that continues to inspire study due its essential role in numerous contexts. In contrast to most prior work, which has focused on point sets, we consider…

The Fr\'{e}chet distance is a well studied and commonly used measure to capture the similarity of polygonal curves. Unfortunately, it exhibits a high sensitivity to the presence of outliers. Since the presence of outliers is a frequently…
