Abstract -
This work deals with the approximate string search in large spatial databases. We investigate range queries augmented with a string similarity search predicate in both Euclidean space and road networks. We make this query the spatial approximate Existing (Apr 19, 2013) string (SAS) query. In Euclidean space, we propose an approximate solution MHR-tree, which will embed min-wise signatures into R-tree. These min-wise signature for an index node u keeps a concise representation of the union of q-grams from strings under the sub-tree of u. We here analyze the pruning functionality of such signatures based on the set resemblance between he query string and the q-grams from the sub-trees with index nodes. Here we also discuss how to estimate the selectivity of a SAS query in Euclidean space, for which here we present a novel adaptive algorithm to find balanced partitions using both the spatial and string information stored in the tree as discussed. For queries on road networks, we propose a novel method, the RSASSOL, which significantly outperforms the baseline algorithm in practice. RSASSOL combines the q-gram based inverted lists and the pruning based on reference nodes. Extensive experiments on large real data sets demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the approach.
