Improving Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search through Learned Adaptive Early Termination

Summary: Adaptive early termination for ANN via per-query stop-point prediction with gradient-boosted trees. Applied to FAISS-like ANN, it achieves up to 7.1x end-to-end latency reduction at the same accuracy on massive datasets; open-source at github.com/efficient/faiss-learned-termination.
