SLING: A Near-Optimal Index Structure for SimRank

Summary: SLING is a near-optimal SimRank index with eps additive error guarantees; single-pair queries run in O(1/eps) and single-source in O(n/eps). Space O(n/eps); precomputation O(m/eps + n log n delta/eps^2); on real graphs, up to 10k× (single-pair) and 110× (single-source) speedups at higher space. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
