Medical Image Retrieval via Nearest Neighbor Search on Pre-trained Image Features.

ABSTRACT: Nearest neighbor search, also known as NNS, is a technique used to locate the points in a high-dimensional space closest to a given query point. This technique has multiple applications in medicine, such as searching large medical imaging databases, disease classification, and diagnosis. However, when the number of points is significantly large, the brute-force approach for finding the nearest neighbor becomes computationally infeasible. Therefore, various approaches have been developed to make the search faster and more efficient to support the applications. With a focus on medical imaging, this paper proposes DenseLinkSearch (DLS), an effective and efficient algorithm that searches and retrieves the relevant images from heterogeneous sources of medical images. Towards this, given a medic
