Similarity Search and Applications, 1st ed. 2020 13th International Conference, SISAP 2020, Copenhagen, Denmark, September 30 – October 2, 2020, Proceedings Information Systems and Applications, incl. Internet/Web, and HCI Series

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Similarity Search and Applications, SISAP 2020, held in Copenhagen, Denmark, in September/October 2020. The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 19 full papers presented together with 12 short and 2 doctoral symposium papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections named: scalable similarity search; similarity measures, search, and indexing; high-dimensional data and intrinsic dimensionality; clustering; artificial intelligence and similarity; demo and position papers; and doctoral symposium.
