Abstract
We present a new data structure for the c-approximate near neighbor problem (ANN) in the Euclidean space ... This is the first improvement over the result by Andoni and Indyk (FOCS 2006) and the first data structure that bypasses a locality-sensitive hashing lower bound proved by O'Donnell, Wu and Zhou (ICS 2011). By known reductions we obtain a data structure for the Hamming space and ... which is the first improvement over the result of Indyk and Motwani (STOC 1998).
