Hi, I was reading the Wikipedia entry on GiST (http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GiST) and it mentions

"""
Although originally designed for answering Boolean selection queries, GiST can also support nearest-neighbor search, and various forms of statistical approximation over large data sets.
"""

Could anybody provide pointers to papers or online pages that discuss the use of GiST indexes for statistical approximations?

Thanks,
