Abstract

Given a point q, a reverse k-nearest neighbor (RkNN) query retrieves all the data points that have q as one of their k-nearest neighbors. RkNN search has received increasing attention recently and has been applied to many applications such as decision support systems, geographic information systems (GIS), and outlier detection. However, most existing methods can deal with low-dimensional or small-scale data, and it is still challenging to handle high-dimensional or large-scale data. In this paper, we propose a GPU-accelerated method of RkNN search for high-dimensional and large-scale data. We divide the process into two parts and implement each on GPU. We experimentally verify that the proposed method outperforms the baseline method implemented on CPU.
