Package Contents#

class cuvs.neighbors.cagra.CompressionParams#

CompressionParams(pq_bits=8, *, pq_dim=0, vq_n_centers=0, kmeans_n_iters=25, vq_kmeans_trainset_fraction=0.0, pq_kmeans_trainset_fraction=0.0)

Parameters for VPQ Compression

pq_bits: int

The bit length of the vector element after compression by PQ. Possible values: [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]. The smaller the ‘pq_bits’, the smaller the index size and the better the search performance, but the lower the recall.

pq_dim: int

The dimensionality of the vector after compression by PQ. When zero, an optimal value is selected using a heuristic.

vq_n_centers: int

Vector Quantization (VQ) codebook size - number of “coarse cluster centers”. When zero, an optimal value is selected using a heuristic.

kmeans_n_iters: int

The number of iterations searching for kmeans centers (both VQ & PQ phases).

vq_kmeans_trainset_fraction: float

The fraction of data to use during iterative kmeans building (VQ phase). When zero, an optimal value is selected using a heuristic.

vq_kmeans_trainset_fraction: float

The fraction of data to use during iterative kmeans building (PQ phase). When zero, an optimal value is selected using a heuristic.

class cuvs.neighbors.cagra.ExtendParams#
ExtendParams(max_chunk_size=None, *)

Supplemental parameters to extend CAGRA Index

max_chunk_sizeint

The additional dataset is divided into chunks and added to the graph. This is the knob to adjust the tradeoff between the recall and operation throughput. Large chunk sizes can result in high throughput, but use more working memory (O(max_chunk_size*degree^2)). This can also degrade recall because no edges are added between the nodes in the same chunk. Auto select when 0.

Parameters to build index for CAGRA nearest neighbor search

metricstr, default = “sqeuclidean”

String denoting the metric type, valid values for metric are [“sqeuclidean”, “inner_product”], where:

  • sqeuclidean is the euclidean distance without the square root operation, i.e.: distance(a,b) = sum_i (a_i - b_i)^2

  • inner_product distance is defined as distance(a, b) = sum_i a_i * b_i.

intermediate_graph_degree : int, default = 128 graph_degree : int, default = 64 build_algo: str, default = “ivf_pq”

string denoting the graph building algorithm to use. Valid values for algo: [“ivf_pq”, “nn_descent”, “iterative_cagra_search”], where

  • ivf_pq will use the IVF-PQ algorithm for building the knn graph

  • nn_descent (experimental) will use the NN-Descent algorithm for building the knn graph. It is expected to be generally faster than ivf_pq.

  • iterative_cagra_search will iteratively build the knn graph using CAGRA’s search() and optimize()

compression: CompressionParams, optional

If compression is desired should be a CompressionParams object. If None compression will be disabled.

ivf_pq_build_params: cuvs.neighbors.ivf_pq.IndexParams, optional

cuvs.neighbors.cagra.build(*args, resources=None, **kwargs)#

build(IndexParams index_params, dataset, resources=None)

Build the CAGRA index from the dataset for efficient search.

The build performs two different steps- first an intermediate knn-graph is constructed, then it’s optimized it to create the final graph. The index_params object controls the node degree of these graphs.

It is required that both the dataset and the optimized graph fit the GPU memory.

The following distance metrics are supported:
  • L2

  • InnerProduct

resourcesOptional cuVS Resource handle for reusing CUDA resources.

If Resources aren’t supplied, CUDA resources will be allocated inside this function and synchronized before the function exits. If resources are supplied, you will need to explicitly synchronize yourself by calling resources.sync() before accessing the output.
