📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added binary IVF indexing for packed binary vectors, with index building, extension, Hamming-distance search, filtering, and serialization.
    • Added packed-binary support to balanced k-means, including bit expansion for fitting and prediction.
    • Added pairwise and fused nearest-neighbor operations using bitwise Hamming distance.
    • Added binary dataset views for packed codes and quantization thresholds.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved adaptive-center IVF-Flat extension when processing prefetched host-data batches.
    • Made nearest-neighbor reductions consistently select the smaller ID when distances tie.
  • Documentation
    • Added C++ API documentation for binary datasets and IVF-Binary, and clarified packed-binary k-means behavior.

This change adds packed-binary support to balanced k-means and introduces a C++ IVF-Binary index API. It adds binary dataset views and bitwise-Hamming distance paths, plus implementation, validation, test, and documentation updates.

Changes: Packed-Binary Vector Support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Binary dataset and API contracts
cpp/include/cuvs/core/dataset/binary.hpp, cpp/include/cuvs/cluster/kmeans.hpp, cpp/include/cuvs/neighbors/ivf_binary.hpp, fern/pages/cpp_api/*, fern/docs.yml
Adds non-owning binary dataset and dictionary views, the packed-binary k-means parameter, and public IVF-Binary declarations. Documentation describes packed row layout, dimensions, and API operations.
Bitwise-Hamming distance operations
cpp/src/distance/detail/*, cpp/include/cuvs/detail/jit_lto/*, cpp/src/neighbors/ivf_flat/detail/jit_lto_kernels/*, cpp/src/neighbors/ivf_flat/ivf_flat_interleaved_scan_jit.cuh
Adds byte-wise XOR/population-count distance operations, fused nearest-neighbor support, pairwise dispatch configurations, and IVF-Flat scan dispatch for uint8_t Hamming searches.
Packed-binary balanced k-means
cpp/src/cluster/*kmeans_balanced*, cpp/src/cluster/detail/kmeans_balanced.cuh, cpp/tests/cluster/kmeans_balanced.cu, fern/pages/cpp_api/cpp-api-cluster-kmeans.md
Updates validation, prediction, center accumulation, balancing, and hierarchical clustering for decoded packed bits and expanded center dimensions. Adds packed-input tests and API documentation.
IVF-Binary index lifecycle
cpp/src/neighbors/ivf_binary*, cpp/include/cuvs/neighbors/ivf_binary.hpp, cpp/CMakeLists.txt, cpp/tests/CMakeLists.txt, cpp/tests/neighbors/ann_ivf_binary.cu, fern/pages/cpp_api/cpp-api-neighbors-ivf-binary.md
Adds index state, build and extension logic, serialization and deserialization, and build/test wiring. Tests and documentation cover lifecycle operations and adaptive centers.
IVF-Binary search
cpp/src/neighbors/ivf_binary/ivf_binary.cu, cpp/src/neighbors/ivf_binary/ivf_binary_search.cuh, cpp/tests/neighbors/ann_ivf_binary.cu, fern/pages/cpp_api/cpp-api-neighbors-ivf-binary.md
Adds center probing, Hamming-distance list scans, filtering, and workspace-based batching. Tests compare distances with brute-force results and exercise filtering and validation.
IVF-Flat adaptive-center prefetch
cpp/src/neighbors/ivf_flat/ivf_flat_build.cuh, cpp/tests/neighbors/ann_ivf_flat/test_float_int64_t.cu
The adaptive-center update loop prefetches batches and synchronizes the main stream when prefetching is enabled. A test checks row counts and center means across batches.

Change: Feature

Suggested reviewers: tarang-jain, cjnolet, imotov

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9139f

Some accepted packed vectors can produce incorrect search distances, and large-k searches may exceed their workspace budget. Resolve those behaviors before merging; the public API documentation also needs correction.

Reject or mask nonzero padding bits.

device_binary_dataset_view accepts nonzero bits outside the logical dimension. The IVF-Binary coarse search passes the encoded byte count to bitwise_hamming_distance_op, whose core counts every bit in x ^ y. It does not mask the unused bits of the final byte.

For dim == 1, 0x80 therefore has Hamming distance 1 from 0x00, although both represent the same logical vector. Reject nonzero padding bits or mask the final byte before the IVF-Binary build and search operations.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Count the uint32_distances buffer in ws_size_per_query.

search_impl allocates uint32_distances with n_queries * n_lists * 4 bytes. It allocates this buffer in addition to distance_buffer_dev, from the same search_mr. The heuristic counts 2 * n_lists four-byte words per query. That count covers distance_buffer_dev and one more buffer of the same size. The heuristic does not count neighbors_uint32_buf, which needs k * 4 bytes per query. When the workspace is tight, the batch can exceed the limit and the allocation can fail. Add 4ull * k and recheck the n_lists term.

## IVF-Binary index build

<a id="neighbors-ivf-binary-build"></a>
### neighbors::ivf_binary::build

Build the index from a binary-quantized dataset.

```cpp
auto build(raft::resources const& handle,
const index_params& index_params,
device_binary_dataset_view<float, int64_t> dataset) -> index;
```

The thresholds of the dataset dictionary are copied into the index.

Usage example:

**Parameters**

| Name | Direction | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `handle` | in | `raft::resources const&` | |
| `index_params` | in | [`const index_params&`](/api-reference/cpp-api-neighbors-ivf-binary#neighbors-ivf-binary-index-params) | configure the index building |
| `dataset` | in | [`device_binary_dataset_view<float, int64_t>`](/api-reference/cpp-api-core-dataset-binary#device-binary-dataset-view) | the binary-quantized vectors |

**Returns**

Document the search overloads and remove the empty "Usage example".

The page documents build, extend, serialize, and deserialize. It does not document either search overload, the raw float query overload or the encoded device_binary_dataset_view overload. search is the main public entry point of this PR. Line 256 also starts a "Usage example:" heading with no example below it. Add search sections with their parameters, the supported filters (none_sample_filter, bitset_filter), and the Hamming distance output. Then add or remove the example. Also fix the center_counts description at Lines 216-222: the sentence is split around the code block.

Clarify that the retained quantizer is the build dataset’s quantizer, not
necessarily the quantizer used to produce every stored code after `extend`.
Update the API comment at cpp/include/cuvs/neighbors/ivf_binary.hpp lines 82-82
and make the same accuracy correction in the API page at
fern/pages/cpp_api/cpp-api-neighbors-ivf-binary.md lines 64-64.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr
