Further Information
In content-based information retrieval (CBIR) of multimedia data, high-dimensional data indexing and query is a challenging problem due to the inherent high dimensionality of multimedia data. As a data-based method, metric distance based high-dimensional data indexing has recently emerged as an attractive method because of its ability of making use of the properties of metric spaces to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of data indexing. M-tree is one of the most efficient indexing structures for searching data from metric space, and it is a paged, balanced, and dynamic tree that organizes data objects in an arbitrary metric space with fixed sizes for all its nodes. However, inherent disadvantages are veiled in the M-tree and its variants, which prevent them from further improvement of their indexing and query efficiency. To avoid these disadvantages, this paper proposes a sorted clue tree (SC-tree), which essentially modifies the nodes, entries, indexing algorithm, and query algorithm of the M-tree but reserves its advantages. Experimental results and complexity analyses have shown that the SC-tree is much more efficient than the M-tree with respect to the query time and indexing time without sacrificing its query accuracy.
