Question

Hi , is it possible to call falconn knn index and do a lookup in iOS or do you need cross compilation (Like for FAISS)?

Unfortunately I don't have experience with iOS development. Parts of FALCONN (Eigen and FFHT) rely on SIMD instructions. So this might be the main obstacle for porting to a non-x86 platform (Eigen has support for some ARM SIMD however).
