Technical Details
Dataset : SIFT-1M (200K base, 2K queries)
Verification : Independent brute-force ground truth
Environment : CPU-only, conservative parameters
Libraries : Both FAISS and hnswlib compared
Call for Testing
Docker image ready for community testing:
docker pull quarkplatform/ann-benchmarks:v1.0.0
python -m ann_benchmarks --dataset sift-128-euclidean --algorithm quark-hnsw-high1
Curious about the community's thoughts on this approach!
