VisualNeo: Bridging the Gap between Visual Query Interfaces and Graph Query Engines

Kai Huang, Houdong Liang, Chongchong Yao +5

Visual Graph Query Interfaces (VQIs) empower non-programmers to query graph data by constructing visual queries intuitively. Devising efficient technologies in Graph Query Engines…

Optimizing SSD-Resident Graph Indexing for High-Throughput Vector Search

Weichen Zhao, Yuncheng Lu, Yao Tian +5

Graph-based approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNS) methods (e.g., HNSW) have become the de facto state of the art for their high precision and low latency. To scale beyond main…

Low Rank Learning for Offline Query Optimization

Zixuan Yi, Yao Tian, Zachary G. Ives +1

Recent deployments of learned query optimizers use expensive neural networks and ad-hoc search policies. To address these issues, we introduce \textsc{LimeQO}, a framework for offl…

DB-LSH: Locality-Sensitive Hashing with Query-based Dynamic Bucketing

Yao Tian, Xi Zhao, Xiaofang Zhou

Among many solutions to the high-dimensional approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search problem, locality sensitive hashing (LSH) is known for its sub-linear query time and robust t…
