Title: An Investigation of Some New Tree Structures
Authors: Woodford, Brenda
Advisor: Wood, D.
Department: Library Science
Keywords: Library and Information Science;Library and Information Science
Publication Date: Aug-1977
Abstract: <p>A study of the tree structures developed by Finkel and Bentley (3 & 4) was done and the results are documented in this report. These tree structures, i.e. the quad tree and the k-d tree, were especially developed for associative retrieval. A comparison of the above tree structures and the well known binary search tree is presented for exact match queries.</p> <p>An implementation of the insertion algorithms for each tree structure and a generalization of Aldon Walker's (9) display algorithm are given.</p>
