Description
Recently, there were several updates made to the nn-descent algorithm in RAFT which need to be migrated over to cuVS. This includes:
- Ability to compute mutual reachability distance by applying an epilogue during the distance computation.
- Batching API for scalability
- Ability to specify whether distances should be returned with search results (this option should ultimately be made available to all index types)
There might be more updates. @divyegala please keep me honest here.
