Similarity Search Seminar Spring 18

Fridays / 10:00 - 11:00 / DIKU room 1-0-04

Topics

Recent theoretical results related to similarity search. Simple papers with approachable open problems are appreciated. PhD students who participate actively will receive a diploma from ITU’s PhD school (approx. 2 ECTS).

Example keywords: Dimensionality reduction, sketching, clustering, isoperimetric inequalities, locality-sensitive hashing, fine-grained complexity, approximate and exact near neighbor search.
