Using `np.sqrt(np.einsum('ij,ij->i', arr, arr))` is significantly faster (~4x speedup on a laptop CPU for typical batch sizes). If `keepdims=True` behavior is needed, appending `[:, np.newaxis]` matches the original shape seamlessly. **Action:** Always prefer `np.sqrt(np.einsum('ij,ij->i', arr, arr))` over `np.linalg.norm(arr, axis=1)` when computing row-wise vector norms in NumPy to eliminate dispatch overhead and improve execution speed. + +## 2024-08-12 - Fast row-wise squared Euclidean norm via einsum +**Learning:** In performance-critical NumPy operations (like k-means assignment and initialization), computing row-wise squared Euclidean norms using `(X ** 2).sum(axis=1)` or `(X * X).sum(axis=1)` allocates large intermediate arrays (for the squaring operation) which degrades performance and memory cache locality. Replacing these with `np.einsum('ij,ij->i', X, X)` avoids these intermediate allocations, resulting in a ~3-5x execution speedup for large arrays. For cases requiring `keepdims=True`, appending `[:, None]` achieves the same shape efficiently. +**Action:** Always replace `(X ** 2).sum(axis=1)` and `(X * X).sum(axis=1)` with `np.einsum('ij,ij->i', X, X)` in hot paths. When computing squared differences like `((X - c) ** 2).sum(1)`, first compute the difference `diff = X - c` and then apply `np.einsum('ij,ij->i', diff, diff)`. diff --git a/snapvec/__init__.py b/snapvec/__init__.py index 5994437..9335194 100644 --- a/snapvec/__init__.py +++ b/snapvec/__init__.py @@ -21,11 +21,11 @@ __version__ = "0.11.1" __all__ = [ - "SnapIndex", - "PQSnapIndex", "IVFPQSnapIndex", + "PQSnapIndex", "ResidualSnapIndex", + "SnapIndex", "get_codebook", - "rht", "padded_dim", + "rht", ] diff --git a/snapvec/_fast.pyi b/snapvec/_fast.pyi index 7aceae9..d7b9527 100644 --- a/snapvec/_fast.pyi +++ b/snapvec/_fast.pyi @@ -4,12 +4,10 @@ The real module is built from Cython and does not ship a ``.pyi`` from the compiler; this stub lets ``mypy --strict`` see the same Python-level shapes the Cython kernels expose to callers.
