Abstract

In particular, a preliminary model is defined which captures the relevant features of spatial datasets, independently from the operation to be optimized and in an unsupervised manner. This model is trained with a large amount of both synthetic and real-world data, with the aim to produce meaningful spatial embeddings. The construction of an embedding model could be intended as a preliminary step for the optimization of many different spatial operations, so the cost of its building can be compensated during the subsequent construction of specific models. Indeed, for each considered spatial operation, a specific tailored model will be trained but by using spatial embeddings as input, so a very little amount of training data points is required for them. Three peculiar operations are considered as proof of concept in this paper: range query, self-join, and binary spatial join. Finally, a comparison with an alternative technique, known as transfer learning, is provided and the advantages of the proposed technique over it are highlighted.
