Sublinear Sketches for Approximate Nearest Neighbor and Kernel Density Estimation

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2510.23039v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search and Approximate Kernel Density Estimation (A-KDE) are fundamental problems at the core of modern machine learning, with broad applications in data analysis, information systems, and large-scale decision making. In massive and dynamic data streams, a central challenge is to design compact sketches that preserve essential structural properties of the data while enabling efficient queries. In this work, we develop new sketching algorithms that achieve sublinear space and query time guarantees for both ANN and A-KDE for a dynamic stream of data. For ANN in the streaming model, under natural assumptions, we design a sublinear sketch that requires only $\mathcal{O}(n^{(1-\eta)(1+\rho)})$ memory by stori
