BiocNeighbors

Description

Implements exact and approximate methods for nearest neighbor detection, in a framework that allows them to be easily switched within Bioconductor packages or workflows. Exact searches can be performed using the k-means for k-nearest neighbors algorithm, vantage point trees, or an exhaustive search. Approximate searches can be performed using the Annoy or HNSW libraries. Each search can be performed with a variety of different distance metrics, parallelization, and variable numbers of neighbors. Range-based searches (to find all neighbors within a certain distance) are also supported.
