A Question from Tim Lebo about udrea2007grin:
It would seem that the method used to determine cluster centers would drastically influence query performance. The selected clustering algorithm (e.g., PAM) and the inter-cluster metric (e.g., single, complete, or average link) would both be factors of performance. The authors do not commit to an inter-cluster distance metric d_c and devote one sentence discussing the results of the comparison: They all "performed" the same within 5%.
- Why do you suppose GRIN's index creation times, index sizes, and query times were invariant to the inter-cluster metric used?
- Answer: This is a good question. The answer is two fold. In GRIN index building and query execution, authors have made use of some graph mining, clustering algorithms, which I am not very familiar with. Since the features and performance characteristics of these two algorithms are not know and also there isn't a lot of literature present on usage of these algorithms for RDF graphs, it's difficult to comment on whether or not performance characteristics of these algorithms affect efficiency of GRIN index.
