  1. Searching Dynamic Point Sets in Spaces with Bounded Doubling Dimension Lee-Ad Gottlieb Joint work with Richard Cole

  2. NNS • Nearest Neighbor Search (NNS) • Given a set of points S in a metric space • Preprocess S so that the following query can be answered efficiently: • given query point q, what is the closest point to q in S? q

  3. NNS • A sublinear algorithm for NNS in general metrics? • Bad news: not possible. q ~1 ~1 ~1 ~1 ~1

  4. NNS • What if we only require only an approximate NNS (ANN)? • More bad news: Still takes linear time! • This talk deals with ANN. • Can we parameterize the hard case? q ~1 ~1 ~1 ~1 ~1

  5. Doubling Dimension • The space within radius r of center c is the r-ball of c. • Point set X has doubling dimension  if • the points of X covered by ball B can be covered by 2 balls of half the radius. 4 5 3 6 8 2 7 1

  6. NNS in Low Doubling Dimension • Data structure for (1+e)-ANN query on S • Navigating Net of points aids search. • A Navigating Net is composed of levels of -nets. • Navigating nets: Simple algorithms for proximity search. R. Krauthgamer, J.R. Lee. SODA ‘04

  7. Modified -net • anmodified -net for a point set S is a set of balls of radius  centered at points of S • Packing property • The centers are separated from each other by some minimum distance ’ • We use ’ = 4/5  • The balls Cover all the points of the S.

  33. Analysis • Time to find the lowest enclosing ball • How many levels of nets are there? • Let the spread of the points be D = dmax/dmin • There are O(log D) levels • At every level, we consider 2O() balls. 2O() log  • If  = nO(1) we get a good search time • 2O() log n • But what if  is asymptotically larger?

  34. Summary of Previous Work DSpread of the points = dmax/dmin  Abstract dimension * Static structure, 2O()n log n construction time

  35. Challenge • How to dynamically maintain and search a deep DAG? log levels For large 

  36. Special Case O(log n) search on an unbalanced tree is well known.

  37. Special Case O(log n) search on an unbalanced tree is well known.

  39. Special Case O(log n) search on an unbalanced tree is well known.

  40. Special Case O(log n) search on an unbalanced tree is well known. Can we do something similar for our DAGs?

  46. Towards a Tree Spanning tree representation Balls of interest

  47. Preliminaries • For a ball x at level i, its friends are all balls of level i that intersect x. • In the navigating net, every ball knows who its friends are. This information is readily available from the DAG • If two balls of the same level both contain q, they must be friends.

  48. Modified Search • The search begins with the top ball as the single ball of interest. • In general, the search is specified by 2O()balls of interest, all at the same level. • each of these balls contain the query point • For illustration, let 2O() = 3

  49. Modified Search • Start the search on the largest tree • Identify a subtree with a constant fraction of the total size of the large tree

  50. Modified Search • If the query point is not in the subtree, eliminate the subtree from consideration.
