Really funny that you mention that! Some of our more recent work focuses on using adaptive sampling techniques in approximate-nearest-neighbor search (actually, the related problem of maximum inner product search: https://ar5iv.org/abs/2212.07551).

We definitely think that our approach could be used to make an index structure for ANN search directly, for example in conjunction with Hierarchical Navigable Small World approaches.
