Online Additive Quantization

2021 
Approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNs) plays an important role in many applications ranging from information retrieval, recommender systems to machine translation. Several ANN indexes, such as hashing and quantization, have been designed to update for the evolving database, but there exists a remarkable performance gap between them and retrained indexes on the entire database. To close the gap, we propose an online additive quantization algorithm (online AQ) to dynamically update quantization codebooks with the incoming streaming data. Then we derive the regret bound to theoretically guarantee the performance of the online AQ algorithm. Moreover, to improve the learning efficiency, we develop a randomized block beam search algorithm for assigning each data to the codewords of the codebook. Finally, we extensively evaluate the proposed online AQ algorithm on four real-world datasets, showing that it remarkably outperforms the state-of-the-art baselines.
