Abstract
The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementations for identifying k nearest neighbors. A plurality of combined neighborhoods are received from a plurality of local join executors. Each combined neighborhood represents a neighborhood of a source data point and has one or more pairs of neighbors, each of which includes the source data point, a neighbor of the source point, and a distance in-between. A plurality of KNN lists corresponding to a plurality of source data points are obtained. Each KNN list includes K neighbors to a corresponding source data point, each of which is represented by an index of the neighbor and a distance between the source data point and the neighbor. The plurality of KNN lists are updated based on the plurality of combined neighborhoods to generate updated KNN lists.
