Improve: organize retrievers.py around per-path stripe runners
0a78817
"""Compute exact global k-NN ground truth for an embedding collection.
Two modes share the same per-stripe partition + per-shard output pipeline:
--mode dense (default)
Cosine top-k over a `(N, dim)` FP16 corpus. Used for the
article-level dense models (qwen3-embedding-0.6b,
snowflake-arctic-embed-l-v2.0, nomic-embed-text-v1.5, ...).
--mode maxsim
ColBERT-style late-interaction MaxSim top-k over a
`(T_total, dim)` token bank + `(N+1,)` section offsets. Used for
the section-level multi-vector models (gte-moderncolbert-v1).
Both modes write per-shard `{wiki}/{stem}.{suffix}.ground_truth.{ibin,fbin}`
files in canonical shard-walk order. The neighbor IDs in the `.ibin` are
global row IDs (article-id space for dense, section-id space for MaxSim).
Usage:
python ground_truth.py --mode dense \
--output /path/to/embeddings --model-subdir qwen3-embedding-0.6b \
--num-gpus 8
python ground_truth.py --mode maxsim \
--output /path/to/embeddings --model-subdir gte-moderncolbert-v1 \
--num-gpus 8
