Abstract
Pairs of similar vectors in a set of vectors are identified. A comparison vector x is identified, and a set of candidate vectors corresponding to the vector x is identified. For each candidate vector y in the set, a similarity estimate between the comparison vector x and the candidate vector y is determined; if the similarity estimate meets a similarity threshold, a similarity score of the comparison vector x and the candidate vector y is determined; and if the similarity score meets the similarity threshold, the pair of vectors (x, y) is included in a list of similar pairs of vectors.
