Location-Aware Type Ahead Search on Spatial Databases: Semantics and Efficiency
Summary: First work on location-aware type-ahead for spatial data, combining proximity ranking with prefix completion as users type. Proposes a formal cost model and novel optimizations; shows efficiency gains over naive hybrids on real/synthetic data. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
