When a program attempts to search a data structure for a particular item, it uses an algorithm. An algorithm is a process, defined in code, for carrying out a specific task. Searching a data ...

The team proposed Graph-Decomposed k -NN Searching Algorithm to improve the time-efficiency of nearest nodes searching. In the research, A graph-decomposed tree is constructed from road network.

Searching algorithms are designed to save you from looking through all the data. There are two types of searching algorithm you should be familiar with: linear search and binary search.
