Data Structures for Range Searching

Open access

Abstract

Much research has recently been devoted to "multikey" searching problems.In this paper the partmular multlkey problem of range searching Is investigated and a number of data structures that have been proposed as solutions to this problem are surveyed.The purposes of this paper are to bring together a collection of widely scattered results, to acquaint the reader with the structures currently avadable for solving the particular problem of range searching, and to display a set of general methods for attacking multikey searching problems.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
