| Abstract | Computing the similarity between data objects is a fundamental operation for many distributive applications such as those on the Word Wide Wed, in Peer-to-Peer networks or even in Sensor Networks. Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) has been recently proposed in order to reduce the number of bits that need to be transmitted between sites in order to permit evaluation of different similarity functions between the data objects. In our work we investigate a particular form of LSH, termed Random Hyperplane Projection (RHP). RHP is a data agnostic model that works for arbitrary data sets. However, data in most applications is not uniform. In our work, we first describe the shortcomings of the RHP scheme, in particular, its inefficiency to exploit evident skew in the underlying data distribution and then propose a novel framework that automatically detects correlations and computes an RHP embedding in the Hamming cube tailored to the provided data set. We further discuss extensions of our framework in order to cope with changes in the data distribution or outliers. In such cases our technique automatically reverts to the basic RHP model for data items that can not be described accurately through the computed embedding. Our experimental evaluation using several real datasets demonstrates that our proposed scheme outperforms the existing RHP algorithm providing up to three times more accurate similarity computations using the same number of bits. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
