We study spectral algorithms for the high-dimensional Nearest Neighbor Search problem (NNS). In particular, we consider a semi-random setting where a dataset $P$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is chosen arbitrarily from an unknown subspace of low…
This paper addresses the problem of finding the nearest neighbor (or one of the R-nearest neighbors) of a query object q in a database of n objects. In contrast with most existing approaches, we can only access the ``hidden'' space in which…
The $k$-Nearest Neighbor Search ($k$-NNS) is the backbone of several cloud-based services such as recommender systems, face recognition, and database search on text and images. In these services, the client sends the query to the cloud…
Approximate nearest-neighbor search (ANNS) algorithms are a key part of the modern deep learning stack due to enabling efficient similarity search over high-dimensional vector space representations (i.e., embeddings) of data. Among various…
Neighbor search is of fundamental important to many engineering and science fields such as physics simulation and computer graphics. This paper proposes to formulate neighbor search as a ray tracing problem and leverage the dedicated ray…
