Filtered ANN search is an increasingly important problem in vector retrieval, yet systems face a difficult trade-off due to the execution order: Pre-filtering (filtering first, then ANN over the passing subset) requires expensive…

Machine learning tasks over image databases often generate masks that annotate image content (e.g., saliency maps, segmentation maps, depth maps) and enable a variety of applications (e.g., determine if a model is learning spurious…

Index structures are important for efficient data access, which have been widely used to improve the performance in many in-memory systems. Due to high in-memory overheads, traditional index structures become difficult to process the…

Recent advancements in learned index structures propose replacing existing index structures, like B-Trees, with approximate learned models. In this work, we present a unified benchmark that compares well-tuned implementations of three…

A recent research trend involves treating database index structures as Machine Learning (ML) models. In this domain, single or multiple ML models are trained to learn the mapping from keys to positions inside a data set. This class of…

Spatial objects often come with textual information, such as Points of Interest (POIs) with their descriptions, which are referred to as geo-textual data. To retrieve such data, spatial keyword queries that take into account both spatial…

Chunking data is obviously no new concept; however, I had never found any data structures that used chunking as the basis of their implementation. I figured that by using chunking alongside concurrency, I could create an extremely fast…

Skyline is widely used in reality to solve multi-criteria problems, such as environmental monitoring and business decision-making. When a data is not worse than another data on all criteria and is better than another data at least one…

Along with climate change, more frequent extreme events, such as flooding and tropical cyclones, threaten the livelihoods and wellbeing of poor and vulnerable populations. One of the most immediate needs of people affected by a disaster is…

Index structures are fundamental for efficient query processing on large-scale datasets. Learned indexes model the indexing process as a prediction problem to overcome the inherent trade-offs of traditional indexes. However, most existing…

Instruction tuning plays a critical role in aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preference. Despite the vast amount of open instruction datasets, naively training a LLM on all existing instructions may not be optimal and…

In this work, we present a new benchmarking suite with new real-life inspired skewed workloads to test the performance of concurrent index data structures. We started this project to prepare workloads specifically for self-adjusting data…

Learned indexes fit machine learning (ML) models to the data and use them to make query operations more time and space-efficient. Recent works propose using learned spatial indexes to improve spatial query performance by optimizing the…

We show how full-text search based on inverted indices can be accelerated by clustering the documents without losing results (SeCluD -- SEarch with CLUstered Documents). We develop a fast multilevel clustering algorithm that explicitly uses…

Recent research found that cloud data warehouses are text-heavy. However, their capabilities for efficiently processing string columns remain limited, relying primarily on techniques like dictionary encoding and prefix-based partition…

Modern big data applications integrate data from various sources. As a result, these datasets may not satisfy perfect constraints, leading to sparse schema information and non-optimal query performance. The existing approach of PatchIndexes…

Vector search, the task of finding the k-nearest neighbors of a query vector against a database of high-dimensional vectors, underpins many machine learning applications, including retrieval-augmented generation, recommendation systems, and…

Inverted file structure is a common technique for accelerating dense retrieval. It clusters documents based on their embeddings; during searching, it probes nearby clusters w.r.t. an input query and only evaluates documents within them by…

The data structure at the core of large-scale search engines is the inverted index, which is essentially a collection of sorted integer sequences called inverted lists. Because of the many documents indexed by such engines and stringent…

As a key ingredient of the DBMS, index plays an important role in the query optimization and processing. However, it is a non-trivial task to apply existing indexes or design new indexes for new applications, where both data distribution…
