## Member Function Documentation

void faiss::IndexIVFPQ::add_core_o | ( | idx_t | n,
|  | const float * | x,
|  | const long * | xids,
|  | float * | residuals_2,
|  | const long * | precomputed_idx = `nullptr`
| ) |  |

same as add_core, also:

- output 2nd level residuals if residuals_2 != NULL
- use precomputed list numbers if precomputed_idx != NULL

Definition at line 176 of file IndexIVFPQ.cpp.

void faiss::IndexIVFPQ::add_with_ids | ( | idx_t | n,
|  | const float * | x,
|  | const long * | xids = `nullptr`
| ) |  |
| override virtual

Same as add, but stores xids instead of sequential ids.

The default implementation fails with an assertion, as it is not supported by all indexes.

Parameters

  xids | if non-null, ids to store for the vectors (size n)

Reimplemented from faiss::Index.

Reimplemented in faiss::IndexIVFPQR.

Definition at line 170 of file IndexIVFPQ.cpp.

void faiss::IndexIVFPQ::copy_subset_to | ( | IndexIVFPQ & | other,
|  | int | subset_type,
|  | long | a1,
|  | long | a2
| ) |  | const

copy a subset of the entries index to the other index

if subset_type == 0: copies ids in [a1, a2) if subset_type == 1: copies ids if id % a1 == a2

Definition at line 317 of file IndexIVFPQ.cpp.

size_t faiss::IndexIVFPQ::find_duplicates | ( | idx_t * | ids,
|  | size_t * | lims
| ) |  | const

Find exact duplicates in the dataset.

the duplicates are returned in pre-allocated arrays (see the max sizes).

lims limits between groups of duplicates (max size ntotal / 2 + 1) ids ids[lims[i]] : ids[lims[i+1]-1] is a group of duplicates (max size ntotal)

Returns
  n number of groups found

void faiss::IndexIVFPQ::precompute_table | ( |  | ) |

build precomputed table

Precomputed tables for residuals

During IVFPQ search with by_residual, we compute

    d = || x - y_C - y_R ||^2

where x is the query vector, y_C the coarse centroid, y_R the refined PQ centroid. The expression can be decomposed as:

d = || x - y_C ||^2 + || y_R ||^2 + 2 * (y_C|y_R) - 2 * (x|y_R)

term 1 term 2 term 3

When using multiprobe, we use the following decomposition:

- term 1 is the distance to the coarse centroid, that is computed during the 1st stage search.
- term 2 can be precomputed, as it does not involve x. However, because of the PQ, it needs nlist * M * ksub storage. This is why use_precomputed_table is off by default
- term 3 is the classical non-residual distance table.

Since y_R defined by a product quantizer, it is split across subvectors and stored separately for each subvector. If the coarse quantizer is a MultiIndexQuantizer then the table can be stored more compactly.

At search time, the tables for term 2 and term 3 are added up. This is faster when the length of the lists is > ksub * M.

query n vectors of dimension d to the index.

return at most k vectors. If there are not enough results for a query, the result array is padded with -1s.

Parameters

  distances | output pairwise distances, size n*k

search a set of vectors, that are pre-quantized by the IVF quantizer. Fill in the corresponding heaps with the query results.

Parameters

  nx | nb of vectors to query
  qx | query vectors, size nx * d
  keys | coarse quantization indices, size nx * nprobe
  coarse_dis | distances to coarse centroids, size nx * nprobe
  res | heaps for all the results, gives the nprobe
  store_pairs | store inv list index + inv list offset instead in upper/lower 32 bit of result, instead of ids (used for reranking).
