Worked on the alibaba/zvec repository to enhance vector search performance and test reliability over a two-month period. Delivered a batch distance calculation optimization for HNSW by refactoring the searcher and streamer in C++, replacing single-distance computations with batch processing to improve throughput and scalability. Focused on algorithm optimization and performance tuning to support large-scale workloads. Subsequently, addressed test suite stability by refining quantized integer metric tests and cleaning up obsolete assertions, which improved CI reliability and maintainability. Emphasized code refactoring, unit testing, and robust test practices, ensuring the codebase remained efficient, reliable, and ready for future development iterations.
