• Abstract: The emerging class of instance-optimized systems has shown potential to achieve high performance by specializing to a specific data and query workloads. Particularly, Machine Learning (ML) techniques have been applied successfully to build various instance-optimized components (e.g., learned indexes). This paper investigates to leverage ML techniques to enhance the performance of spatial indexes, particularly the R-tree, for a given data and query workloads. As the areas covered by the R-tree index nodes overlap in space, upon searching for a specific point in space, multiple paths from root to leaf may potentially be explored. In the worst case, the entire R-tree could be searched. In this paper, we define and use the overlap ratio to quantify the degree of extraneous leaf node accesses required by a range query. The goal is to enhance the query performance of a traditional R-tree for high-overlap range queries as they tend to incur long running-times. We introduce a new AI-tree that transforms the search operation of an R-tree into a multi-label classification task to exclude the extraneous leaf node accesses. Then, we augment a traditional R-tree to the AI-tree to form a hybrid "AI+R"-tree. The "AI+R"-tree can automatically differentiate between the high- and low-overlap queries using a learned model. Thus, the "AI+R"-tree processes high-overlap queries using the AI-tree, and the low-overlap queries using the R-tree. Experiments on real datasets demonstrate that the "AI+R"-tree can enhance the query performance over a traditional R-tree by up to 500%.

  K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) search is a fundamental algorithm in artificial intelligence software with applications in robotics, and autonomous vehicles. Similar to binary trees, kd-trees become unbalanced as new data is added in online applications which can lead to rapid degradation in search performance unless the tree is rebuilt. We will present a "forest of interval kd-trees" which reduces the number of tree rebuilds, without compromising the exactness of query results.
