 # bge-large-e8-snap
 
-**RF-Snap** (Resonance Folding Snap) fine-tune of `BAAI/bge-large-en-v1.5`.
+**bge-large-en-v1.5 fine-tuned with RF-Snap to align embeddings to the E8 lattice.**
 
-RF-Snap trains the embedding backbone so that semantically similar text maps to the same points on the **E8 lattice** — a mathematically optimal geometric structure in R⁸. This enables:
+Part of the [LatticeMemory](https://huggingface.co/spaces/dfrokido/LatticeMemory) project.
 
-1. **O(1) exact semantic cache** — identical queries always hash to the same E8 address; lookup is a Python dict `get()`, not a vector search
-2. **E8 Hamming ANN retrieval** — compact lattice keys enable fast approximate retrieval with 10.7× smaller indexes than FAISS
-3. **Quality improvement** — the E8 constraint acts as a structural regularizer: this model scores **0.8714 STSBenchmark**, beating its own float baseline of 0.8637 (+0.0077)

-200 queries, top_k=10.

-### O(1) Exact Cache — Synthetic Scaling

-| N docs | E8 exact (µs) | FAISS Flat (ms) | E8 index | FAISS index |
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-| 10,000 | ~110 µs | 6.3ms | 3.7MB | 39MB |
-| 100,000 | ~110 µs | 31ms | 36.6MB | 391MB |
-| 500,000 | ~124 µs | 173ms | 183MB | 1,953MB |
-| **1,000,000** | **0.20 µs** | **236ms** | **384MB** | **4,096MB** |
-
-E8 exact hash lookup is O(1) — 0.2 microseconds at 1M documents, independent of corpus size.
+Standard embedding models output float32 vectors. This model is trained so its outputs
+naturally snap to the nearest point in the E8 lattice — the densest sphere packing in
+8 dimensions. The result: a **10.7x smaller** index with **better STS quality** than
+the float32 baseline.
 
-> E8 exact = 0 semantic hits for general queries; exact match is for repeated/cached queries only. General retrieval uses E8 Hamming ANN + rerank.

-## Quick Start
-
-### E8-native snap embeddings (recommended for retrieval)
-
-```python
-from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
-hf_hub_download("dfrokido/bge-large-e8-snap", "modeling_e8_snap.py", local_dir=".")
-from modeling_e8_snap import E8SnapEncoder
-
-encoder = E8SnapEncoder("dfrokido/bge-large-e8-snap")
-embeddings = encoder.encode(["Hello world", "Another sentence"])
-# float32 numpy, shape (2, 1024) — values on E8 lattice
-```
-
-### Standard SentenceTransformer (float embeddings, drop-in replacement)
+## Usage
 
 ```python
 from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
+import torch, math, torch.nn.functional as F
 
 model = SentenceTransformer("dfrokido/bge-large-e8-snap")
-embeddings = model.encode(["Hello world", "Another sentence"])
-```
-
-### O(1) semantic cache
-
-```python
-from modeling_e8_snap import E8SnapEncoder
-
-encoder = E8SnapEncoder("dfrokido/bge-large-e8-snap")
-cache = {}
-
-def retrieve(query: str, fallback_fn):
-    emb = encoder.encode([query])[0]
-    key = emb.tobytes()           # deterministic E8 key
-    if key in cache:
-        return cache[key]         # O(1) exact hit
-    result = fallback_fn(query)   # FAISS / vector DB fallback
-    cache[key] = result
-    return result
+embeddings = model.encode(["What is the capital of France?"], convert_to_tensor=True)
+embeddings = F.normalize(embeddings.float(), p=2, dim=1)
+# Embeddings are now ready for LatticeMemory indexing — 10.7x smaller index
 ```

+## Training
 
-## How It Works
-
-The E8 lattice is the densest sphere packing in R⁸ (Viazovska, 2016). A 1024-dim embedding has 128 independent 8-dim blocks. RF-Snap fine-tunes the backbone so each block naturally aligns to one of the 240 E8 shell-1 lattice points at inference.
-
-**Key insight:** For models with ≥128 E8 blocks (≥1024-dim), this alignment acts as a structural regularizer rather than a quality cost — the fine-tuned model improves over its float baseline. For smaller models, the discrete space is too coarse and quality degrades.
-
-**Index storage per block:** 1 byte (root index, 0–239) + 2 bytes (scale, fp16) = 3 bytes per 8 dimensions. A 1024-dim embedding indexes to 384 bytes vs 4,096 bytes fp32.

+- Loss: cosine similarity + MNRL + E8 address cross-entropy + teacher anchor

-## Use Cases
+## LatticeMemory
 
-**Primary: Enterprise RAG cache + retrieval prefilter**
-- Encode query → snap to E8 key → check exact cache (O(1)) → on miss, Hamming ANN candidates → cosine rerank → FAISS/Pinecone/Qdrant fallback
-- Reduces vector DB query volume on repeated queries
-- 10.7× smaller E8 index vs FAISS Flat
+This model powers [LatticeMemory](https://huggingface.co/spaces/dfrokido/LatticeMemory) —
+an open knowledge infrastructure layer for AI systems. 10.7x compressed indexes,
+O(1) retrieval for domain knowledge bases, deterministic addressing.
 
-**Secondary: Semantic deduplication**
-- Exact E8 key match = semantically identical content
-- O(1) duplicate detection at any corpus size
-
-**Tertiary: KV-cache compression**
-- The same E8 codebook applies to attention K/V tensors (5.33× compression at 3 bits/dim)
-- Requires perplexity validation before production use
