Demos for a few Faiss functionalities
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
demo_auto_tune.py
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Demonstrates the auto-tuning functionality of Faiss
|
|
|
|
|
|
demo_ondisk_ivf.py
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Shows how to construct a Faiss index that stores the inverted file
|
|
data on disk, eg. when it does not fit in RAM. The script works on a
|
|
small dataset (sift1M) for demonstration and proceeds in stages:
|
|
|
|
0: train on the dataset
|
|
|
|
1-4: build 4 indexes, each containing 1/4 of the dataset. This can be
|
|
done in parallel on several machines
|
|
|
|
5: merge the 4 indexes into one that is written directly to disk
|
|
(needs not to fit in RAM)
|
|
|
|
6: load and test the index
