Revisiting the Index Construction of Proximity Graph-Based Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search

Summary: Revisits RNG/NSWG construction to expose superlinear bottlenecks and introduces a pruning-based edge-selection framework. Accelerates index building by up to 5.6× while preserving or improving k-ANN search quality. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
