Locality-Sensitive Hashing for Signatures. LSH is an efficient algorithm for approximate nearest neighbor search in high dimensional spaces by performing probabilistic dimension reduction of data. The basic idea is to hash the input items so that similar items are mapped to the same buckets with high probability (the number of buckets being much smaller than the universe of possible input items). To avoid computing the similarity of every pair of sets or their signatures. If we are given signatures for the sets, we may divide them into bands, and only measure the similarity of a pair of sets if they are identical in at least one band. By choosing the size of bands appropriately, we can eliminate from consideration most of the pairs that do not meet our threshold of similarity.
