"""Query-Aware Weighted Flow Diffusion retriever.
This module implements the Query-Aware Weighted Flow Diffusion algorithm
for knowledge graph traversal. The algorithm uses flow diffusion to rank
nodes by relevance, with query-aware edge weighting based on node
embeddings and query embeddings.
Algorithm (push-relabel flow diffusion):
1. Initialize mass at source node(s), warm-start x via lazy random walk
2. Iteratively push excess mass to neighbors via query-aware edges
3. Accumulate importance scores in x with configurable step size
4. Return node flow values as relevance ranking
