LSH Algorithm and Implementation (E2LSH)

Locality-Sensitive Hashing (LSH) is an algorithm for solving the approximate or exact Near Neighbor Search in high dimensional spaces. This webpage links to the newest LSH algorithms in Euclidean and Hamming spaces, as well as the E2LSH package, an implementation of an early practical LSH algorithm. 

  • Algorithm description: 

    • Newest (not quite) LSH algorithms (2014): These algorithms achieve performance better than the classic LSH algorithms by usingdata-dependent hashing. They improve over classic LSH algorithms for both Hamming and Euclidean space. These algorithms are not dynamic however, in contrast to the classic LSH algorithms, which use data-independent hashing and hence allow updates to the pointset.

    • Original LSH algorithm (1999): the best algorithm for the Hamming space remains previous version of the algorithm for the Hamming distance is described in [GIM'99] paper.


  • Implementation of LSH: download the E2LSH package (alpha-version). The code is based on the algorithm described in the book chapter (2006) from above. You can download the manual for the code. The code has been developed by Alex Andoni in 2004-2005.
