## Detailed Description

Inverted file with stored vectors. Here the inverted file pre-selects the vectors to be searched, but they are not otherwise encoded.

## Member Function Documentation

void faiss::IndexIVFFlat::copy_subset_to | ( | IndexIVFFlat & | 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 456 of file IndexIVF.cpp.

void faiss::IndexIVFFlat::merge_from_residuals | ( | IndexIVF & | other | ) |
| override virtual

implemented by sub-classes

Implements faiss::IndexIVF.

Definition at line 444 of file IndexIVF.cpp.

void faiss::IndexIVFFlat::range_search | ( | idx_t | n,
|  | const float * | x,
|  | float | radius,
|  | RangeSearchResult * | result
| ) |  | const
| override virtual

query n vectors of dimension d to the index.

return all vectors with distance < radius. Note that many indexes do not implement the range_search (only the k-NN search is mandatory).

Parameters

  x | input vectors to search, size n * d
  radius | search radius
  result | result table

Reimplemented from faiss::Index.

Definition at line 400 of file IndexIVF.cpp.

void faiss::IndexIVFFlat::reconstruct | ( | idx_t | key,
|  | float * | recons
| ) |  | const
| override virtual

Reconstruct a stored vector (or an approximation if lossy coding)

this function may not be defined for some indexes

Parameters

  key | id of the vector to reconstruct
  recons | reconstucted vector (size d)

Reimplemented from faiss::Index.

Definition at line 523 of file IndexIVF.cpp.

long faiss::IndexIVFFlat::remove_ids | ( | const IDSelector & | sel | ) |
| override virtual

removes IDs from the index. Not supported by all indexes

Reimplemented from faiss::Index.

Definition at line 491 of file IndexIVF.cpp.

void faiss::IndexIVFFlat::search | ( | idx_t | n,
|  | const float * | x,
|  | idx_t | k,
|  | float * | distances,
|  | idx_t * | labels
| ) |  | const
| override virtual

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

  x | input vectors to search, size n * d
  labels | output labels of the NNs, size n*k
  distances | output pairwise distances, size n*k

Implements faiss::Index.

Reimplemented in faiss::IndexIVFFlatIPBounds.

Definition at line 379 of file IndexIVF.cpp.

void faiss::IndexIVFFlat::set_typename | ( |  | ) |
| override virtual

Return the typeName of the index (which includes main parameters
