Much recent work has been devoted to approximate nearest neighbor queries. Motivated by applications in recommender systems, we consider approximate furthest neighbor (AFN) queries and present a simple, fast, and highly practical data…

Hierarchical graph-based algorithms such as HNSW have achieved state-of-the-art performance for Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search in practice, yet they often lack theoretical guarantees on query time or recall due to their heavy use…

We introduce FastGraph, a novel GPU-optimized k-nearest neighbor algorithm specifically designed to accelerate graph construction in low-dimensional spaces (2-10 dimensions), critical for high-performance graph neural networks. Our method…

Approximate K nearest neighbor (AKNN) search is a fundamental and challenging problem. We observe that in high-dimensional space, the time consumption of nearly all AKNN algorithms is dominated by that of the distance comparison operations…

Model-based methods for recommender systems have been studied extensively for years. Modern recommender systems usually resort to 1) representation learning models which define user-item preference as the distance between their embedding…

Spectral clustering became a popular choice for data clustering for its ability of uncovering clusters of different shapes. However, it is not always preferable over other clustering methods due to its computational demands. One of the…

Nearest neighbor (NN) search is inherently computationally expensive in high-dimensional spaces due to the curse of dimensionality. As a well-known solution, locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) is able to answer c-approximate NN (c-ANN)…

Graph search is one of the most successful algorithmic trends in near neighbor search. Several of the most popular and empirically successful algorithms are, at their core, a simple walk along a pruned near neighbor graph. Such algorithms…

In the era of cloud computing and AI, data owners outsource ubiquitous vectors to the cloud, which furnish approximate $k$-nearest neighbors ($k$-ANNS) services to users. To protect data privacy against the untrusted server,…

Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) is a nonparametric method for estimating the shape of a density function, given a set of samples from the distribution. Recently, locality-sensitive hashing, originally proposed as a tool for nearest neighbor…
