This is the implementation for ip-nsw
from the following paper:
S. Morozov, A. Babenko. Non-metric Similarity Graphs for Maximum Inner Product Search. Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 32 (NIPS 2018).
and it is substantially based on https://github.com/yurymalkov/hnsw.
- g++ with c++11 support
- OpenMP installed
To download and compile the code type:
$ git clone https://github.com/stanis-morozov/ip-nsw.git
$ cd ip-nsw
$ cmake CMakeLists.txt
$ make
We introduce to the community the new dataset Music100
. The database of Music100
consists of 1,000,000
vectors of dimensionality 100
and there is a random sample of 10,000
queries of the same dimensionality.
Groundtruth: Top 1, Top 10, Top 100.
Both files are written in binary format. Vectors are stored consecutively, and numbers are represented in 4-bytes floating poing format (float in C/C++).
Example of reading database_music100.bin
in C++:
size_t databaseSize = 1000 * 1000;
size_t dimension = 100;
std::vector <std::vector <float> > data(databaseSize, std::vector <float> (dimension));
std::ifstream input("database_music100.bin", std::ios::binary);
for (size_t i = 0; i < databaseSize; i++) {
input.read((char*)data[i].data(), dimension * sizeof(float));
}
input.close();
Example of reading database_music100.bin
in Python:
databaseSize = 10**6
dimension = 100
data = np.fromfile('database_music100.bin', dtype = np.float32).reshape(databaseSize, dimension)
Usage: main [OPTIONS]
This tool supports two modes: to construct the graph index from the database and to retrieve top K maximum inner product vectors using the constructed index. Each mode has its own set of parameters.
--mode "database" or "query". Use "database" for
constructing index and "query" for top K
maximum inner product retrieval
Database mode supports the following options:
--database Database filename. Database should be stored in binary format.
Vectors are written consecutive and numbers are
represented in 4-bytes floating poing format (float in C/C++)
--databaseSize Number of vectors in the database
--dimension Dimension of vectors
--outputGraph Filename for the output index graph
--efConstruction efConstruction parameter. Default: 1024
--M M parameter. Default: 32
Query mode supports the following options:
--query Query filename. Queries should be stored in binary format.
Vectors are written consecutive and numbers are
represented in 4-bytes floating poing format (float in C/C++)
--querySize Number of queries
--dimension Dimension of vectors
--inputGraph Filename for the input index graph
--efSearch efSearch parameter. Default: 128
--topK Top size for retrieval. Default: 1
--output Filename to print the result. Default: stdout
Our best performed index graph from the NIPS paper is (we assume that our Music100
dataset is located in the data
folder):
./main --mode database --database data/database_music100.bin --databaseSize 1000000 --dimension 100 --outputGraph out_graph.hnsw --efConstruction 1024 --M 32
./main --mode query --query data/query_music100.bin --querySize 10000 --dimension 100 --inputGraph out_graph.hnsw --topK 10 --efSearch 128 --output result.txt
The above commands print the output to result.txt
in the following format:
109133 121486 19537 659869 834299 626720 867593 793041 985613 780019

where each line corresponds to the answer for the query and the numbers in the lines are zero-based IDs of vectors in the database.
