+
+## Overview
+
+AutoVector Native is a GPU-accelerated vector range search algorithm engineered for **maximum throughput**, **deterministic execution**, and **resilience under fuel-limited environments**. Designed specifically for the TIG Vector Search Challenge, it combines **adaptive clustering**, **coalesced memory access**, and **batched solution persistence** to deliver state-of-the-art performance without sacrificing compliance.
+
+Unlike conventional approaches that rely on complex synchronization or approximate filtering, AutoVector Native uses a **radical simplification strategy**: fixed small cluster counts, exhaustive intra-cluster search, and minimal kernel overhead — enabling predictable, scalable performance across difficulty levels.
+
+This version (`v2.0-beta`) introduces Sigma I & II compliance, dynamic probe scheduling, and hybrid CPU-GPU coordination for robust operation under real contest constraints.
+
+---
+
+## Key Features
+
+| Feature | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| ✅ **Sigma I Compliant** | No oracle access; only uses permitted challenge fields |
+| ✅ **Sigma II Compliant** | Saves partial solutions after every query batch (256 queries) |
+| 🔁 **Adaptive Clustering** | Dynamically computes optimal centroid count based on database size, dimensionality, and query load |
+| 🧠 **Multi-Probe Search** | Supports both exhaustive and adaptive probe strategies via hyperparameters |
+| ⚙️ **GPU-Optimized Kernels** | All core operations (centroid selection, assignment, indexing, search) executed on GPU |
+| 💾 **Progress Preservation** | Batched `save_solution()` ensures partial results survive fuel exhaustion |
+| 🚀 **High Occupancy** | Uses 256-thread blocks, coalesced memory access, and shared memory where safe |
+
+---
+
+## Algorithm Design
+
+### 1. **Centroid Initialization**
+- Centroids selected via strided sampling from database vectors using `select_centroids_strided`.
+- Number of centroids adaptively scaled:
+  
+```rust
+  base = √N
+  dim_factor = 1.0 + ln(dim / 100)
+  query_factor = √(num_queries / 10)
+  adaptive_count = (base × dim_factor / query_factor).clamp(8, 64)
+
