Yeah, the 10 test result isn't very precise I know, I'm going to run a longer one, but first I'm going to modify the test to use ThreadMXBean for timing, to ensure other things running on the system to not have a significant impact on the benchmark. And yes, that worst case time isn't too great but I have ideas of how to improve it notably hopefully. Additionally, that test above was with a bucket size of 50, and I've since found that a bucket size of 20 improves the result quite notably. I think there are still plenty of ways I can make it faster. My secret though? TAoR = Total Avoidance of Recursion :) --[[User:Rednaxela|Rednaxela]] 12:14, 20 August 2009 (UTC) | Yeah, the 10 test result isn't very precise I know, I'm going to run a longer one, but first I'm going to modify the test to use ThreadMXBean for timing, to ensure other things running on the system to not have a significant impact on the benchmark.

Revision as of 13:28, 20 August 2009
(Continue from Talk:Kd-Tree#Bucket_PR_k-d_tree)
Thank you, I have changed my local implementation to fixed your. Just found some bug in the benchmark, all trees except Voidious' and Rednaxela's does full Euclidian distance. Now it use squared distance, but the time didn't effect much. And just found some bug in my tree that make it run a little faster, or not? Anyway, my benchmarks is now running... with large input set(15,400000,150) and 50 tests at once. Will post new result and upload new version soon. It is now fully automated and get the input size/dimensions/neighbours from argv. » Nat | Talk » 15:03, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Even though Simonton's is the fastest averaged, it has quite large worst case. Voidious' the best here. And it seems that my tweak make it slower... My worst case is larger than linear worst case. This test run for 15 minutes on my machine so if you run it yourself please be patient. » Nat | Talk » 15:16, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
It might be more useful to use 6-10 dimensions and 30-50 neighbors, as I think that's more common for DC guns. With 15/150, the brute force is not even that slow, and would probably outperform the kd-trees in a normal battle (~25,000 data points). Over 400,000 data points with 6 dimensions / 30 neighbors, the kd-tree will be waaay faster than brute force. Also, I wonder what Simonton is using for bucket size, as that impacts the speed, too. It might be worth modifying the Bucket PR kd-trees to use the same bucket size for fair comparisons. Glad to see mine is looking reliable. =) --Voidious 15:32, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
One note about bucket size: The optimal bucket size would depend on implementation details somewhat, so I think that if they are made to use the same bucket size, it should be tested at a variety of different bucket sizes. Also, not that I care much for my old/crappy/inefficient/inaccurate tree, but it is also a bucket variant Nat, despite what it's title in the tests implies. --Rednaxela 15:42, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
Oh, I forget that. I use bucket size of 8 in Simonton's tree. I'll re-run it this evening. Note that 478ms is only half a second! But I wonder, I haven't checked yet, which distance does Rednaxela's tree use? I'll change my tree to binary, change to 8 buckets, check Voidious' and Rednaxela's (is Rednaxela's bucketPR or just plain K-d tree?) and apply final speed update to my tree and run the test again with suggested neighbours/dimensions. » Nat | Talk » 07:18, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
ARGH!!!
- Simonton's : 8 buckets since he told that bucket size of 8-16 is the best.
- Voidious's : 32
- Rednaxela's : 20
- Nat's : 22 due a bit of test result with difference m-ary and bucket size.
Will change to 10 for all. Result next. » Nat | Talk » 11:47, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Having problem =( Trying to do configurable bucket size, and result in memory leak plus several exception and main NPE with Rednaxela's... I think I just revert and just change a constant...
Here is result from 10 tests:

Sorry, I didn't have enough patient to run it for enough test. But, just thinking, this is "K-NEAREST NEIGHBOURS ALGORITHMS BENCHMARK", not "BUCKET PR K-D TREE BENCHMARK" so I think I will use the default configuration for each tree. Any comment? » Nat | Talk » 12:21, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
- I'd say that the trees should be kept in default configuration, unless a provably better configuration for that tree is found, in which case that should be used and documented. What configuration (i.e. bucket size) is best depends on the particular implementation, and chances are the default configuration is decent, but if we find a better configuration for a particular one there's no reason not to use it and let the author know. --Rednaxela 14:39, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Since I kept a whole lot of points in both the tree and array in my KNNRunner, last night I run the test before I slept so my computer didn't run any other programs. Today, now, I run a lot of other programs/applications so... I just run another test and get OutOfMemoryError with -Xmx1536M... I wonder if in my last change with my tree create some memory leak... I couldn't identify it anyway... But overall I have finished my own worked K-d tree so I think I will just use Voidious' in my next robot. I've already Learned this algorithm anyway. » Nat | Talk » 12:42, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Hmm... well I have a better tree almost ready. There are still some considerable improvements I still plan to planned to make, but I'm pretty sure it currently outperforms anything else that's been benchmarked here... Full benchmark results pending. Hint: TAoR :) --Rednaxela 06:48, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Oh, just as I finish typing the benchmark finishes:

If you don't mind, I would like to see 100 or 50 tests result. But still 48.2494 > 20.6054. I have a strange habit to choose the algorithm by its worst case (so I prefer merge sort than quick sort =)). Anyway, its best case is better than Simonton's! Congrats. Do you mind sharing your secret? Oh! I just realised that milli- has 2 t... » Nat | Talk » 11:24, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
