Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
The Earth Moveru0027s Distance (EMD) is one of the most-widely used distance functions to measure the similarity between two multimedia objects. While providing good search results, the EMD is too much time-consuming to be used in large multimedia databases. To solve the problem, we propose an approximate k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) search method based on the EMD. First, the proposed method builds an index using the M-tree, a distance-based multi-dimensional index structure, to reduce the disk access overhead. When building the index, we reduce the number of features in the multimedia objects through dimensionality-reduction. When performing the k-NN search on the M-tree, we find a small set of candidates from the disk using the index and then perform the post-processing on them. Second, the proposed method uses the approximate EMD for index retrieval and post-processing to reduce the computational overhead of the EMD. To compensate the errors due to the approximation, the method provides a way of accuracy improvement of the approximate EMD. We performed extensive experiments to show the efficiency of the proposed method. |
