+# Spatial Trees Implementation
+
+This directory contains implementations of two spatial tree data structures for efficient nearest neighbor searches:
+- KD-Tree: A space-partitioning data structure for organizing points in k-dimensional space
+- Ball Tree: A metric tree that partitions data in a series of nesting hyper-spheres
+
+## Features
+
+- Pure Python implementation (no dependencies)
+- Support for k-dimensional points
+- Efficient nearest neighbor queries
+- Comprehensive test suite with accuracy and performance benchmarks
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+# Example with KD-Tree
+points = [[2, 3], [5, 4], [9, 6], [4, 7], [8, 1], [7, 2]]
+tree = KDTree(points)
+query_point = [6, 5]
+nearest = tree.find_nearest(query_point)
+
+# Example with Ball Tree
+tree = BallTree(points, leaf_size=40)  # leaf_size is optional
+nearest = tree.find_nearest(query_point)
+```
+
+## Performance
+
+Both tree structures offer significant speedup over brute force search, especially for larger datasets:
+
+```
+Points  Dims    Brute     KD-Tree   Ball-Tree
+---------------------------------------------
+100     2       0.000069  0.000033  0.000047
+100     3       0.000085  0.000042  0.000029
+1000    2       0.000716  0.000054  0.000174
+1000    3       0.000848  0.000036  0.000380
+```
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+- KD-Tree recursively partitions space using axis-aligned hyperplanes
+- Ball Tree recursively partitions space using hyperspheres
+- Both implementations handle edge cases and numerical stability
+- When multiple points are equidistant from the query point, any of them may be returned
