In plenty of machine learning applications, the most relevant items for a particular query should be efficiently extracted, while the relevance function is based on a highly-nonlinear model, e.g., DNNs or GBDTs. Due to the high…

We present a geometric framework for filtered approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search. Filtering a proximity graph by a metadata predicate produces a subgraph, a fiber, whose connectivity and geometry can differ sharply from the full…

Given a collection of points in R^3, KD-Tree and R-Tree are well-known nearest neighbor search (NNS) algorithms that rely on space partitioning and spatial indexing techniques. However, when the query point is far from the data points or…

Filtered Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search retrieves the closest vectors for a query vector from a dataset. It enforces that a specified set of discrete labels $S$ for the query must be included in the labels of each retrieved…
