Abstract

Nearest neighbor search is fundamental to a wide range of applications. Since the exact nearest neighbor search suffers from the "curse of dimensionality", approximate approaches, such as Locality-Sensitive Hashing (LSH), are widely used to trade a little query accuracy for a much higher query efficiency. In many scenarios, it is necessary to perform nearest neighbor search under multiple weighted distance functions in high-dimensional spaces. This paper considers the important problem of supporting efficient approximate nearest neighbor search for multiple weighted distance functions in high-dimensional spaces. To the best of our knowledge, prior work can only solve the problem for the \(l_2\) distance. However, numerous studies have shown that the \(l_p\) distance with \(p\in(0,2)\) could be more effective than the \(l_2\) distance in high-dimensional spaces. We propose a novel method, WLSH, to address the problem for the \(l_p\) distance for \(p\in(0,2]\). WLSH takes the LSH approac
