Abstract:The problem of similarity search in high-dimensional space is a fundamental problem with numerous applications in computer science, but remains challenging due to the curse of dimensionality. To address this challenge, in this paper, DForest, a novel indexing approach, is proposed for both range and kNN queries on high-dimensional data. Unlike the previous similarity search approaches, which perform a dimensionality reduction on all objects by the same fixed value, we discover the minimal dimensionality each o… Show more
