A new access method, called M-tree, is proposed to organize and search large data sets from a generic "metric space", i.e. where object proximity is only defined by a di...
The inability to answer proximity queries efficiently for spaces of dimension d > 2 has led to the study of approximation to proximity problems. Several techniques have been pro...

In this paper, we present a new cost model for nearest neighbor search in high-dimensional data space. We first analyze different nearest neighbor algorithms, present a generaliza...
The focus is on black-box optimization of a function f : RN R given as a black box, i. e. an oracle for f-evaluations. This is commonly called direct search, and in fact, most meth...
In this paper, we present a new algorithm for solving the block matching problem which is independent of image content and is faster than other full-search methods. The method emp...
