The Case for Learned Index Structures

The Case for Learned Index Structures is the title of a recent article on how using neural network it is possible to create a faster and more efficient way to store and retrieve data.

That’s a case where Neural Networks can improve and change the established field of Data Structures and Algorithms. A great step forward for computer science and machine learning.
