Josh Engels is a Ph.D. student at MIT who has published several works advancing the state of the art in Vector Search. Josh has recently developed the Window Search Tree, a new algorithm particularly targeted for improving Filtered Vector Search. Even more particularly than that, the WST algorithm targets Filtered Search with continuous-valued filters such as "price" or "date", also known as range filters. This is a huge application for Vector Databases and it was incredible getting to pick Josh's brain on how this works and the state of Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search!
