ArrayMorph: Optimizing Hyperslab Queries on the Cloud for Machine Learning Pipelines

Summary: ArrayMorph cost-basedly optimizes hyperslab (region-of-interest) reads from cloud-resident arrays by choosing among chunking, byte-range, and server-side filtering based on layout and platform costs. PyTorch integration cuts transferred data up to 9.8×, improving runtime 1.7× and cost 9×. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
