Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Unable to run benchmarks for faiss_cpu_ivf_flat and faiss_cpu_ivf_pq. The default configuration files are missing: https://github.com/rapidsai/raft/tree/branch-24.04/python/raft-ann-bench/src/raft-ann-bench/run/conf/algos

Describe the solution you'd like

Copy the configuration from the GPU counterparts; that is:

  • faiss_cpu_ivf_flat <> faiss_gpu_ivf_flat
  • faiss_cpu_ivf_pq <> faiss_gpu_ivf_pq

Research direction

Start in python/raft-ann-bench/src/raft-ann-bench/run/conf/algos and compare the existing faiss_gpu_ivf_flat and faiss_gpu_ivf_pq configurations. Add corresponding default configurations for faiss_cpu_ivf_flat and faiss_cpu_ivf_pq, then verify that benchmarks for both CPU algorithms can run with their defaults.
