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 approach for the approximate K-nearest neighbor search based on navigable small world graphs with controllable hierarchy (Hierarchical NSW, HNSW). The proposed solution is fully graph-based, without any need for additional…

A critical piece of the modern information retrieval puzzle is approximate nearest neighbor search. Its objective is to return a set of $k$ data points that are closest to a query point, with its accuracy measured by the proportion of exact…

Estimating the intrinsic dimensionality (ID) of data is a fundamental problem in machine learning and computer vision, providing insight into the true degrees of freedom underlying high-dimensional observations. Existing methods often rely…

We survey permutation-based methods for approximate k-nearest neighbor search. In these methods, every data point is represented by a ranked list of pivots sorted by the distance to this point. Such ranked lists are called permutations. The…

We present NearBucket-LSH, an effective algorithm for similarity search in large-scale distributed online social networks organized as peer-to-peer overlays. As communication is a dominant consideration in distributed systems, we focus on…

In many problems in data mining and machine learning, data items that need to be clustered or classified are not points in a high-dimensional space, but are distributions (points on a high dimensional simplex). For distributions, natural…

We provide a static data structure for distance estimation which supports {\it adaptive} queries. Concretely, given a dataset $X = \{x_i\}_{i = 1}^n$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $0 < p \leq 2$, we construct a randomized data…

Nearest neighbor (NN) problem is an important scientific problem. The NN query, to find the closest one to a given query point among a set of points, is widely used in applications such as density estimation, pattern classification,…

Locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) is a well-known solution for approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search with theoretical guarantees. Traditional LSH-based methods mainly focus on improving the efficiency and accuracy of query phase by…

Efficient k-nearest neighbor search is a fundamental task, foundational for many problems in NLP. When the similarity is measured by dot-product between dual-encoder vectors or $\ell_2$-distance, there already exist many scalable and…

The $K$-nearest neighbors is a basic problem in machine learning with numerous applications. In this problem, given a (training) set of $n$ data points with labels and a query point $p$, we want to assign a label to $p$ based on the labels…

Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search (ANNS) is a fundamental problem in many areas of machine learning and data mining. During the past decade, numerous hashing algorithms are proposed to solve this problem. Every proposed algorithm claims…

Approximate nearest neighbor search (ANN) data structures have widespread applications in machine learning, computational biology, and text processing. The goal of ANN is to preprocess a set S so that, given a query q, we can find a point y…

We study locality-sensitive hash methods for the nearest neighbor problem for the angular distance, focusing on the approach of first projecting down onto a low-dimensional subspace, and then partitioning the projected vectors according to…

Most of the existing methods for estimating the local intrinsic dimension of a data distribution do not scale well to high-dimensional data. Many of them rely on a non-parametric nearest neighbors approach which suffers from the curse of…

Hashing has been widely used for large-scale approximate nearest neighbor search because of its storage and search efficiency. Recent work has found that deep supervised hashing can significantly outperform non-deep supervised hashing in…

In this paper we show that two-dimensional nearest neighbor queries can be answered in optimal $O(\log n)$ time while supporting insertions in $O(\log^{1+\varepsilon}n)$ time. No previous data structure was known that supports $O(\log…

In this paper, we study top-$k$ aggregate (or group) nearest neighbor queries using the weighted SUM operator under the $L_1$ metric in the plane. Given a set $P$ of $n$ points, for any query consisting of a set $Q$ of $m$ weighted points…

Hashing, or learning binary embeddings of data, is frequently used in nearest neighbor retrieval. In this paper, we develop learning to rank formulations for hashing, aimed at directly optimizing ranking-based evaluation metrics such as…
