Abstract

We propose a simple variant of kd-trees, called rank-based kd-trees, for sets of points in Rd. We show that a rank-based kd-tree, like an ordinary kd-tree, supports range search queries in O(n1-1/d + k) time, where k is the output size. The main advantage of rank-based kd-trees is that they can be efficiently kinetized: the KDS processes O(n2) events in the worst case, assuming that the points follow constant-degree algebraic trajectories, each event can be handled in O(log n) time, and each point is involved in O(1) certificates.
