    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for creating and utilizing search indexes with different properties to provide efficient and flexible means for retrieving and ranking high-dimensional content. A first index and a second index are generated with a different sets of properties, which may include a permutation prefix length and a vector quantization scheme, and are each associated with a computational workload. Further, at least one index structure may be created with a posting list associated with a permutation prefix and a set of references, rather than only a permutation prefix, to balance out posting lists of variable lengths within the index. Another embodiment of the disclosure provides for expansion of search results at search time, rather than during indexing, by retrieving posting lists associated with shorter permutation prefix after an initial list is determined to have insufficient recall.

    Abstract: One or more factors of a query and one or more search result candidates are identified. A plurality of decision trees are associated, via a data structure, with one or more leaf invalidation pairs for at least a first value of the one or more factors. The one or more search result candidates are scored based at least in part on the associating of the plurality of decision trees with one or more leaf invalidation pairs for at least the first value of the one or more factors within the data structure.
