## **SPTAG**
SPTAG (Space Partition Tree And Graph) is a library for large scale vector approximate nearest neighbor search scenerio, which is written in C++ and wrapped by Python.

SPTAG is inspired by the NGS approach [[WangL12](#References)]. It contains two basic modules: index builder and searcher.
The RNG is built on the k-nearest neighborhood graph [[WangWZTG12](#References), [WangWJLZZH14](References)]
for boosting the conectivity. Balanced k-means trees are used to replace kd-trees to avoid the inaccurate distance bound estimation in kd-trees for very high-dimensional vectors.

The search begins with the search in the space partition trees for
finding several seeds to start the search in the RNG.
The searches in the trees and the graph are iteratively conducted.
