Title
LVA-Index: An Efficient Way to Determine Nearest Neighbors.
Abstract
In this paper we present our new LVA-Index for indexing multidimensional data. The LVA-Index has a layered structure improving performance when searching for nearest neighbors. The index combines some features of the VA-File and the NBC algorithm, namely: the idea of approximation of the data vectors and the idea of layers. The crucial advantage of the LVA-Index is that it stores n neighbor layers for each cell. For this reason, contrary to the VA-File, the LVA-Index does not require scanning of the entire approximation file. Our experiments proved that searching using the LVA-Index is faster than searching using the VA-File which was designed to effectively handle multidimensional data.
