Learned Offline Query Planning via Bayesian Optimization
Summary: Offline query planning for repeated analytics workloads; learned exploration. Variational auto-encoders + Bayesian optimization search broad plan space, using execution as feedback; outperforms PostgreSQL-optimal and RL baselines on several datasets.
