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. Despite significant progress on this problem, there is a research gap in finding RkNNs not just for an object, but for a given range, which is a natural extension of the problem. Motivated by this, we develop algorithms for exact processing of range-based RkNN with arbitrary values of k on dynamic datasets, which retrieve all the data points that have any position in the given query range R as one of their k nearest neighbors. The experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and the accuracy of our proposed optimizations and algorithms.
