Abstract

The problem of near-duplicate detection consists in finding those elements within a data set which are closest to a new input element, according to a given distance function and a given closeness threshold. Solving such problem for high-dimensional data sets is computationally expensive, since the amount of computation required to assess the similarity between any two elements increases with the number of dimensions. As a motivating example, an image or video sharing website would take advantage of detecting near-duplicates whenever new multimedia content is uploaded. Among different approaches, near-duplicate detection in high-dimensional data sets has been effectively addressed by SimPair LSH [11]. Built on top of Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH), SimPair LSH computes and stores a small set of near-duplicate pairs in advance, and uses them to prune the candidate set generated by LSH for a given new element. In this paper, we develop an algorithm to predict a lower bound of the number of elements pruned by SimPair LSH from the candidate set generated by LSH. Since the computational overhead introduced by SimPair LSH to compute near-duplicate pairs in advance is rewarded by the possibility of using that information to prune the candidate set, predicting the number of pruned points would be crucial. The pruning prediction has been evaluated through experiments over three real-world data sets. We also performed further experiments on SimPair LSH, confirming that it consistently outperforms LSH with respect to memory space and running time.
