The Source Code for LSH-APG (PVLDB 2023)

Introduction

This is a source code for the algorithm described in the paper Towards Efficient Index Construction and Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search in High-Dimensional Spaces (Accepted by PVLDB 2023). We call it as LG project.

Compilation

LG project is written by C++ and can be complied by g++ in Linux and MSVC in Windows. It adopt openMP for parallelism.

Installation

Windows

We can use Visual Studio 2019 to build the project with importing all the files in the directory ./cppCode/LSH-APG/src/.

Linux

cd ./cppCode/LSH-APG
make

The excutable file is then in dbLSH directory, called as lgo

Usage

Command Usage

lgo datasetName

(the first parameter specifies the procedure be executed and change)

Parameter explanation

  • datasetName : dataset name

FOR EXAMPLE, YOU CAN RUN THE FOLLOWING CODE IN COMMAND LINE AFTER BUILD ALL THE TOOLS:

cd ./cppCode/LSH-APG
./lgo audio

Dataset

In our project, the format of the input file (such as audio.data_new, which is in float data type) is the same as that in LSHBOX. It is a binary file, which is organized as the following format:

{Bytes of the data type (int)} {The size of the vectors (int)} {The dimension of the vectors (int)} {All of the binary vector, arranged in turn (float)}

For your application, you should also transform your dataset into this binary format, then rename it as [datasetName].data_new and put it in the directory ./dataset.

A sample dataset audio.data_new has been put in the directory ./dataset. Also, you can get it, audio.data, from here(if so, rename it as audio.data_new). If the link is invalid, you can also get it from data.

For the datasets we use, you can get the raw data from following links: MNIST, Deep1M, GIST, TinyImages80M, SIFT. Next, you should transform your raw dataset into the mentioned binary format, then rename it is [datasetName].data_new and put it in the directory ./dataset.
