We present a scalable approach for range and $k$ nearest neighbor queries under computationally expensive metrics, like the continuous Fr\'echet distance on trajectory data. Based on clustering for metric indexes, we obtain a dynamic tree…
Recent years have witnessed extensive attention in binary code learning, a.k.a. hashing, for nearest neighbor search problems. It has been seen that high-dimensional data points can be quantized into binary codes to give an efficient…
We study range spaces, where the ground set consists of either polygonal curves in $\mathbb{R}^d$ or polygonal regions in the plane that may contain holes and the ranges are balls defined by an elastic distance measure, such as the…
We study the problem of approximating Hamming distance in sublinear time under property-preserving hashing (PPH), where only hashed representations of inputs are available. Building on the threshold evaluation framework of Fleischhacker,…
Geometric data structures have been extensively studied in the regime where the dimension is much smaller than the number of input points. But in many scenarios in Machine Learning, the dimension can be much higher than the number of points…
We consider a general model for representing and manipulating parametric curves, in which a curve is specified by a black box mapping a parameter value between 0 and 1 to a point in Euclidean d-space. In this model, we consider the…
We show that given $m$ proteins (or protein backbones, which are modeled as 3D polygonal chains each of length O(n)) the problem of protein local structure alignment under the discrete Fr\'{e}chet distance is as hard as Independent Set. So…
The approximation of probability measures on compact metric spaces and in particular on Riemannian manifoldsby atomic or empirical ones is a classical task in approximation and complexity theory with a wide range of applications. Instead of…
Constructing a similarity graph from a set $X$ of data points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is the first step of many modern clustering algorithms. However, typical constructions of a similarity graph have high time complexity, and a quadratic space…
We propose the first \emph{local search} algorithm for Euclidean clustering that attains an $O(1)$-approximation in almost-linear time. Specifically, for Euclidean $k$-Means, our algorithm achieves an $O(c)$-approximation in $\tilde{O}(n^{1…
Many application areas collect unstructured trajectory data. In subtrajectory clustering, one is interested to find patterns in this data using a hybrid combination of segmentation and clustering. We analyze two variants of this problem…
We show that approximate near neighbor search in high dimensions can be solved in a Las Vegas fashion (i.e., without false negatives) for $\ell_p$ ($1\le p\le 2$) while matching the performance of optimal locality-sensitive hashing.…
We study the Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) problem under a powerful adaptive adversary that controls both the dataset and a sequence of $Q$ queries. Primarily, for the high-dimensional regime of $d = \omega(\sqrt{Q})$, we introduce a…
Analyzing high-dimensional data with manifold learning algorithms often requires searching for the nearest neighbors of all observations. This presents a computational bottleneck in statistical manifold learning when observations of…
We discuss the problem of performing similarity search over function spaces. To perform search over such spaces in a reasonable amount of time, we use {\it locality-sensitive hashing} (LSH). We present two methods that allow LSH functions…
In this paper we study the problem of finding the approximate nearest neighbor of a query point in the high dimensional space, focusing on the Euclidean space. The earlier approaches use locality-preserving hash functions (that tend to map…
We study the complexity of clustering curves under $k$-median and $k$-center objectives in the metric space of the Fr\'echet distance and related distance measures. Building upon recent hardness results for the minimum-enclosing-ball…
We investigate the problem of finding reverse nearest neighbors efficiently. Although provably good solutions exist for this problem in low or fixed dimensions, to this date the methods proposed in high dimensions are mostly heuristic. We…
Existing deep embedding methods in vision tasks are capable of learning a compact Euclidean space from images, where Euclidean distances correspond to a similarity metric. To make learning more effective and efficient, hard sample mining is…
We consider a new construction of locality-sensitive hash functions for Hamming space that is \emph{covering} in the sense that is it guaranteed to produce a collision for every pair of vectors within a given radius $r$. The construction is…
