Previous studies on Approximate Near-Neighbors Search (ANNS) among curves are either focused on curves in or under the discrete Fréchet distance. In this paper, we propose the first data structure for curves under the (continuous) Fréchet distance in higher dimensions. Given a set of n curves each with number of vertices at most m in , and a fixed , we aim to preprocess into a data structure so that for any given query curve Q with k vertices, we can efficiently report all curves in whose Fréchet distances to Q are at most δ. In the case that k is given in the preprocessing stage, for any we propose a deterministic data structure whose space is that can answer -ANNS queries in query time, where is the diameter of . Considering k as part of the query slightly changes the space to with query time within an approximation factor of . Moreover, we show that our generic data structure for ANNS can give an alternative treatment of the approximate subtrajectory range searching problem studied by de Berg et al. [1].

在更高维度的(连续)Fréchet 距离下的近似近邻搜索
以前关于曲线间近似近邻搜索(ANNS)的研究要么集中在曲线中或在离散的 Fréchet 距离下。在本文中,我们提出了高维(连续)Fréchet 距离下曲线的第一个数据结构。给定一个集合n 条曲线,每条曲线的顶点数最多为m, 和一个固定的,我们的目标是预处理进入数据结构,以便对于任何给定的具有k 个顶点的查询曲线Q,我们可以有效地报告所有曲线到Q的 Fréchet 距离最多为δ。在预处理阶段给定k的情况下,对于任意我们提出了一个确定性的数据结构,其空间是可以回答-ANNS查询查询时间,哪里是直径. 将k视为查询的一部分,将空间略微更改为和近似因子内的查询时间. 此外,我们表明我们的 ANNS 通用数据结构可以为 de Berg 等人研究的近似子轨迹范围搜索问题提供替代处理。[1]。
