We examine the problem of large scale nearest neighbor search in high dimensional spaces and propose a new approach based on the close relationship between nearest neighbor search...
Given some of the recent advances in Distributed Hash Table (DHT) based Peer-To-Peer (P2P) systems we ask the following questions: Are there applications where unstructured querie...
Large-scale distributed data management with P2P systems requires the existence of similarity operators for queries as we cannot assume that all users will agree on exactly the sa...
