The equidistance problem is solved using NPsim function to calculate similarity. And a sequential NPsim matrix is built to improve indexing performance. To sum up the above innovations,a nearest neighbor search algorithm of high-dimensional data based on sequential NPsim matrix is proposed in comparison with the nearest neighbor search algorithms based on KD-tree or SR-tree on Munsell spectral data set. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm similarity is better than that of other algorithms and searching speed is more than thousands times of others. In addition,the slow construction speed of sequential NPsim matrix can be increased by using parallel computing.展开更多

The GBD tree is a spatial data structure suitable for two-or three-dimensional data and has good performance characteristics with respect to the dynamic data environment. On GIS and CAD systems, the R-tree and its successors have been used. In addition, the NN search algorithm is also proposed in an attempt to obtain good performance from the R-tree. On the other hand, the GBD tree is superior to the R-tree with respect to exact match retrieval, because the GBD tree has auxiliary data that uniquely determines the position of the object in the structure. The proposed NN search algorithm depends on the property of the GBD tree described above. The NN search algorithm on the GBD tree was studied and the performance thereof was evaluated through experiments.展开更多

For the purpose of the vertex decimation process presented in the previous work, the neighboring information between points is necessary. Therefore, a nearest neighbors search scheme, considering the local complexity of the processing point, is used to determinate the neighbors for each point in a point geometry. With the constructed virtual connectivity, the secret message can be embedded successfully after the vertex decimation and data embedding processes. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can preserve the advantages of previous work, including higher estimation accuracy, high embedding capacity, acceptable model distortion, and robustness against similarity transformation attacks. Most importantly, this work is the first 3D steganographic algorithm for point geometry with adaptation.展开更多

Although it has received considerable attention in the database literature, there is little prior work on κNN retrieval for moving object trajectories. Motivated by this observation, this paper studies the problem of efficiently processing κNN (κ≥ 1) search on R-tree-like structures storing historical information about moving object trajectories. Two algorithms are developed based on best-first traversal paradigm, called BFPκNN and BFTκNN, which handle the κNN retrieval with respect to the static query point and the moving query trajectory, respectively. Both algorithms minimize the number of node access, that is, they perform a single access only to those qualifying nodes that may contain the final result. Aiming at saving main-memory consumption and reducing CPU cost further, several effective pruning heuristics are also presented. Extensive experiments with synthetic and real datasets confirm that the proposed algorithms in this paper outperform their competitors significantly in both efficiency and scalability.展开更多

In this paper, a novel composite distance transformation method, which is called CDT, is proposed to support a fast κ-nearest-neighbor (κ-NN) search in high-dimensional spaces. In CDT, all (n) data points are first grouped into some clusters by a κ-Means clustering algorithm. Then a composite distance key of each data point is computed. Finally, these index keys of such n data points are inserted by a partition-based B^+-tree. Thus, given a query point, its κ-NN search in high-dimensional spaces is transformed into the search in the single dimensional space with the aid of CDT index. Extensive performance studies are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed scheme. Our results show that this method outperforms the state-of-the-art high-dimensional search techniques, such as the X-Tree, VA-file, iDistance and NB-Tree.展开更多

This problem arises naturally in many areas, such as GIS (geographic information system), multimedia retrieval, and recommender systems. To support various data types and flexible distance metrics involved in real applications, we study AkNN retrieval in metric spaces, namely, metric AkNN (MAkNN) search. Consider that the underlying indexes on the query set and the object set may not exist, which is natural in many scenarios. For example, the query set and the object set could be the results of other queries, and thus, the underlying indexes cannot be built in advance. To support MAkNN search on datasets without any underlying index, we propose an efficient disk-based algorithm, termed as Partition-Based MAkNN Algorithm (PMA), which follows a partition-search framework and employs a series of pruning rules for accelerating the search. In addition, we extend our techniques to tackle an interesting variant of MAkNN queries, i.e., metric self-AkNN (MSAkNN) search, where the query set is identical to the object set. Extensive experiments using both real and synthetic datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our pruning rules and the efficiency of the proposed algorithms, compared with state-of-the-art MAkNN and MSAkNN algorithms.展开更多
