PAC Nearest Neighbor Queries: Approximate and Controlled Search in High-Dimensional and Metric Spaces
In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...

Using the Distance Distribution for Approximate Similarity Queries in High-Dimensional Metric Spaces
We investigate the problem of approximate similarity (nearest neighbor) search in high-dimensional metric spaces, and describe how the distance distribution of the query object ca...

Using the k-Nearest Neighbor Graph for Proximity Searching in Metric Spaces
Proximity searching consists in retrieving from a database, objects that are close to a query. For this type of searching problem, the most general model is the metric space, where...

A note on the nearest neighbor in growth-restricted metrics
In this paper, we give results relevant to sequential and distributed dynamic data structures for finding nearest neighbors in growth-restricted metrics. Our sequential data struc...
