Node similarity search on graphs has wide applications in recommendation, link prediction, to name just a few. However, existing studies are insufficient due to two reasons: (i) the scale of the real-world graph is growing rapidly, and (ii) vertices are always associated with complex attributes. In this paper, we propose an efficiently distributed framework to support node similarity search on massive graphs, which considers both graph structure correlation and node attribute similarity in metric spaces. The framework consists of preprocessing stage and query stage. In the preprocessing stage, a parallel KD-tree construction (KDC) algorithm is developed to form a newly …
