    ## ANN Search Filtering\n\nThis document explains how to use the filtering capabilities to improve Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search.\n\n### Why Filtering?\n\nFilters allow you to narrow down search results dynamically based on:\n- Metadata (e.g., tags, IDs, labels)\n- Numeric thresholds (e.g., only items above/below a value)\n- Custom user-defined logic\n\nThis improves both precision and flexibility of search.\n\n#### Example: Python API\n\n```python\nfrom rust_annie import AnnIndex\nimport numpy as np\n\n# 1. Create an index with vector dimension 128\nindex = AnnIndex(dimension=128)\n\n# 2. Add data with metadata\nvector0 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\nvector1 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\n\nindex.add_item(0, vector0, metadata={\"category\": \"A\"})\nindex.add_item(1, vector1, metadata={\"category\": \"B\"})\n\n# 3. Define a filter function (e.g., only include items where category == \"A\")\ndef category_filter(metadata):\n    return metadata.get(\"category\") == \"A\"\n\n# 4. Perform search with the filter applied\nquery_vector = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\nresults = index.search(query_vector, k=5, filter=category_filter)\n\nprint(\"Filtered search results:\", results)\n
    "},{"location":"filtering/#supported-filters","title":"Supported Filters","text":"

    This library supports applying filters to narrow down ANN search results dynamically.

    Filter type Example Equals Filter.equals(\"category\", \"A\") Greater than Filter.gt(\"score\", 0.8) Less than Filter.lt(\"price\", 100) Custom predicate Filter.custom(lambda metadata: ...)

    Filters work on the metadata you provide when adding items to the index.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#new-feature-filtered-search-with-custom-python-callbacks","title":"New Feature: Filtered Search with Custom Python Callbacks","text":"

    The library now supports filtered search using custom Python callbacks, allowing for more complex filtering logic directly in Python.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#example-filtered-search-with-python-callback","title":"Example: Filtered Search with Python Callback","text":"
    from rust_annie import AnnIndex, Distance\nimport numpy as np\n\n# Create index\nindex = AnnIndex(3, Distance.EUCLIDEAN)\ndata = np.array([\n    [1.0, 2.0, 3.0],\n    [4.0, 5.0, 6.0],\n    [7.0, 8.0, 9.0]\n], dtype=np.float32)\nids = np.array([10, 20, 30], dtype=np.int64)\nindex.add(data, ids)\n\n# Filter function\ndef even_ids(id: int) -> bool:\n    return id % 2 == 0\n\n# Filtered search\nquery = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0], dtype=np.float32)\nfiltered_ids, filtered_dists = index.search_filter_py(\n    query, \n    k=3, \n    filter_fn=even_ids\n)\nprint(filtered_ids)  # [10, 30] (20 is filtered out)\n
    "},{"location":"filtering/#sorting-behavior","title":"Sorting Behavior","text":"

    The BruteForceIndex now uses total_cmp for sorting, which provides NaN-resistant sorting behavior. This change ensures that any NaN values in the data are handled consistently, preventing potential issues with partial comparisons.

    The library now includes a benchmarking function to evaluate the performance of different index types, specifically PyHnswIndex and AnnIndex. This function measures the average, maximum, and minimum query times, providing insights into the efficiency of each index type.

    Filters allow you to narrow down search results dynamically based on: - Metadata (e.g., tags, IDs, labels) - Numeric thresholds (e.g., only items above/below a value) - Custom user-defined logic

    This improves both precision and flexibility of search.

    "},{"location":"concurrency/#example-python-api","title":"Example: Python API","text":"

    "},{"location":"concurrency/#supported-filters","title":"Supported Filters","text":"

    This library supports applying filters to narrow down ANN search results dynamically.

    Filter type Example Equals Filter.equals(\"category\", \"A\") Greater than Filter.gt(\"score\", 0.8) Less than Filter.lt(\"price\", 100) Custom predicate Filter.custom(lambda metadata: ...)

    Filters work on the metadata you provide when adding items to the index.

    ## ANN Search Filtering\n\nThis document explains how to use the filtering capabilities to improve Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search.\n\n### Why Filtering?\n\nFilters allow you to narrow down search results dynamically based on:\n- Metadata (e.g., tags, IDs, labels)\n- Numeric thresholds (e.g., only items above/below a value)\n- Custom user-defined logic\n\nThis improves both precision and flexibility of search.\n\n#### Example: Python API\n\n```python\nfrom rust_annie import AnnIndex\nimport numpy as np\n\n# 1. Create an index with vector dimension 128\nindex = AnnIndex(dimension=128)\n\n# 2. Add data with metadata\nvector0 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\nvector1 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\n\nindex.add_item(0, vector0, metadata={\"category\": \"A\"})\nindex.add_item(1, vector1, metadata={\"category\": \"B\"})\n\n# 3. Define a filter function (e.g., only include items where category == \"A\")\ndef category_filter(metadata):\n    return metadata.get(\"category\") == \"A\"\n\n# 4. Perform search with the filter applied\nquery_vector = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\nresults = index.search(query_vector, k=5, filter=category_filter)\n\nprint(\"Filtered search results:\", results)\n
    "},{"location":"filtering/#supported-filters","title":"Supported Filters","text":"

    This library supports applying filters to narrow down ANN search results dynamically.

    Filter type Example Equals Filter.equals(\"category\", \"A\") Greater than Filter.gt(\"score\", 0.8) Less than Filter.lt(\"price\", 100) Custom predicate Filter.custom(lambda metadata: ...)

    Filters work on the metadata you provide when adding items to the index.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#new-feature-filtered-search-with-custom-python-callbacks","title":"New Feature: Filtered Search with Custom Python Callbacks","text":"

    The library now supports filtered search using custom Python callbacks, allowing for more complex filtering logic directly in Python.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#example-filtered-search-with-python-callback","title":"Example: Filtered Search with Python Callback","text":"
    from rust_annie import AnnIndex, Distance\nimport numpy as np\n\n# Create index\nindex = AnnIndex(3, Distance.EUCLIDEAN)\ndata = np.array([\n    [1.0, 2.0, 3.0],\n    [4.0, 5.0, 6.0],\n    [7.0, 8.0, 9.0]\n], dtype=np.float32)\nids = np.array([10, 20, 30], dtype=np.int64)\nindex.add(data, ids)\n\n# Filter function\ndef even_ids(id: int) -> bool:\n    return id % 2 == 0\n\n# Filtered search\nquery = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0], dtype=np.float32)\nfiltered_ids, filtered_dists = index.search_filter_py(\n    query, \n    k=3, \n    filter_fn=even_ids\n)\nprint(filtered_ids)  # [10, 30] (20 is filtered out)\n
    "},{"location":"filtering/#sorting-behavior","title":"Sorting Behavior","text":"

    The BruteForceIndex now uses total_cmp for sorting, which provides NaN-resistant sorting behavior. This change ensures that any NaN values in the data are handled consistently, preventing potential issues with partial comparisons.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#benchmarking-indices","title":"Benchmarking Indices","text":"

    The library now includes a benchmarking function to evaluate the performance of different index types, specifically PyHnswIndex and AnnIndex. This function measures the average, maximum, and minimum query times, providing insights into the efficiency of each index type.

    Using ThreadSafeAnnIndex and PyHnswIndex for Concurrent Access

    -

    Annie exposes a thread-safe version of its ANN index (AnnIndex) for use in Python. This is useful when you want to perform parallel search or update operations from Python threads. Additionally, the PyHnswIndex class provides a Python interface to the HNSW index, which now includes enhanced data handling capabilities.

    -

    Key Features

    -
      -
    • Safe concurrent read access (search, search_batch)
    • -
    • Exclusive write access (add, remove)
    • -
    • Backed by Rust RwLock and exposed via PyO3
    • -
    • PyHnswIndex supports mapping internal IDs to user IDs and handling vector data efficiently
    • -
    -

    Example

    -
    from annie import ThreadSafeAnnIndex, Distance
    -import numpy as np
    -import threading
    -
    -# Create index
    -index = ThreadSafeAnnIndex(128, Distance.Cosine)
    -
    -# Add vectors
    -data = np.random.rand(1000, 128).astype('float32')
    -ids = np.arange(1000, dtype=np.int64)
    -index.add(data, ids)
    -
    -# Run concurrent searches
    -def run_search():
    -    query = np.random.rand(128).astype('float32')
    -    ids, distances = index.search(query, 10)
    -    print(ids)
    -
    -threads = [threading.Thread(target=run_search) for _ in range(4)]
    -[t.start() for t in threads]
    -[t.join() for t in threads]
    -
    -# Using PyHnswIndex
    -from rust_annie import PyHnswIndex
    -
    -# Create HNSW index
    -hnsw_index = PyHnswIndex(dims=128)
    -
    -# Add vectors to HNSW index
    -hnsw_index.add(data, ids)
    -
    -# Search in HNSW index
    -query = np.random.rand(128).astype('float32')
    -user_ids, distances = hnsw_index.search(query, 10)
    -print(user_ids)

    CI/CD Pipeline for PyPI Publishing

    -

    The CI/CD pipeline for PyPI publishing has been updated to include parallel jobs for building wheels and source distributions across multiple operating systems and Python versions. This involves concurrency considerations that should be documented for users who are integrating or maintaining the pipeline.

    -

    Pipeline Overview

    -

    The pipeline is triggered on pushes and pull requests to the main branch, as well as manually via workflow_dispatch. It includes the following jobs:

    -
      -
    • Test: Runs on ubuntu-latest and includes steps for checking out the code, setting up Rust, caching dependencies, running tests, and checking code formatting.
    • -
    • Build Wheels: Runs in parallel across ubuntu-latest, windows-latest, and macos-latest for Python versions 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, and 3.11. This job builds the wheels using maturin and uploads them as artifacts.
    • -
    • Build Source Distribution: Runs on ubuntu-latest and builds the source distribution using maturin, uploading it as an artifact.
    • -
    • Publish to TestPyPI: Publishes the built artifacts to TestPyPI if triggered via workflow_dispatch with the appropriate input.
    • -
    • Publish to PyPI: Publishes the built artifacts to PyPI if triggered via workflow_dispatch with the appropriate input.
    • -
    -

    Concurrency Considerations

    -
      -
    • Parallel Builds: The build-wheels job utilizes a matrix strategy to run builds concurrently across different operating systems and Python versions. This reduces the overall build time but requires careful management of dependencies and environment setup to ensure consistency across platforms.
    • -
    • Artifact Management: Artifacts from parallel jobs are downloaded and flattened before publishing to ensure all necessary files are available in a single directory structure for the publish steps.
    • -
    • Conditional Publishing: Publishing steps are conditionally executed based on manual triggers and input parameters, allowing for flexible deployment strategies.
    • -
    -

    By understanding these concurrency considerations, users can effectively manage and extend the CI/CD pipeline to suit their specific needs.

    Filtering

    -

    Why Filtering?

    -

    Filters allow you to narrow down search results dynamically based on: -- Metadata (e.g., tags, IDs, labels) -- Numeric thresholds (e.g., only items above/below a value) -- Custom user-defined logic

    -

    This improves both precision and flexibility of search.

    -

    Example: Python API

    -
    from rust_annie import AnnIndex
    -import numpy as np
    -
    -# 1. Create an index with vector dimension 128
    -index = AnnIndex(dimension=128)
    -
    -# 2. Add data with metadata
    -vector0 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)
    -vector1 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)
    -
    -index.add_item(0, vector0, metadata={"category": "A"})
    -index.add_item(1, vector1, metadata={"category": "B"})
    -
    -# 3. Define a filter function (e.g., only include items where category == "A")
    -def category_filter(metadata):
    -    return metadata.get("category") == "A"
    -
    -# 4. Perform search with the filter applied
    -query_vector = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)
    -results = index.search(query_vector, k=5, filter=category_filter)
    -
    -print("Filtered search results:", results)
    -
    -

    Supported Filters

    -

    This library supports applying filters to narrow down ANN search results dynamically.

    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
    Filter typeExample
    EqualsFilter.equals("category", "A")
    Greater thanFilter.gt("score", 0.8)
    Less thanFilter.lt("price", 100)
    Custom predicateFilter.custom(lambda metadata: ...)
    -

    Filters work on the metadata you provide when adding items to the index.

    -

    Sorting Behavior

    -

    The BruteForceIndex now uses total_cmp for sorting, which provides NaN-resistant sorting behavior. This change ensures that any NaN values in the data are handled consistently, preventing potential issues with partial comparisons.

    -

    Benchmarking Indices

    -

    The library now includes a benchmarking function to evaluate the performance of different index types, specifically PyHnswIndex and AnnIndex. This function measures the average, maximum, and minimum query times, providing insights into the efficiency of each index type.

    -

    Example: Benchmarking Script

    -
    import numpy as np
    -import time
    -from rust_annie import PyHnswIndex, AnnIndex
    -
    -def benchmark(index_cls, name, dim=128, n=10_000, q=100, k=10):
    -    print(f"\nBenchmarking {name} with {n} vectors (dim={dim})...")
    -
    -    # Data
    -    data = np.random.rand(n, dim).astype(np.float32)
    -    ids = np.arange(n, dtype=np.int64)
    -    queries = np.random.rand(q, dim).astype(np.float32)
    -
    -    # Index setup
    -    index = index_cls(dims=dim)
    -    index.add(data, ids)
    -
    -    # Warm-up + Timing
    -    times = []
    -    for i in range(q):
    -        start = time.perf_counter()
    -        _ = index.search(queries[i], k=k)
    -        times.append((time.perf_counter() - start) * 1000)
    -
    -    print(f"  Avg query time: {np.mean(times):.3f} ms")
    -    print(f"  Max query time: {np.max(times):.3f} ms")
    -    print(f"  Min query time: {np.min(times):.3f} ms")
    -
    -if __name__ == "__main__":
    -    benchmark(PyHnswIndex, "HNSW")
    -    benchmark(AnnIndex, "Brute-Force")
    -
    -

    Integration & Extensibility

    -
      -
    • Filters are exposed from Rust to Python via PyO3 bindings.
    • -
    • New filters can be added by extending src/filters.rs in the Rust code.
    • -
    • Filters integrate cleanly with the existing ANN index search logic, so adding or combining filters doesn't require changes in the core search API.

    Filtered Search

    - -
    ## ANN Search Filtering
    -
    -This document explains how to use the filtering capabilities to improve Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search.
    -
    -### Why Filtering?
    -
    -Filters allow you to narrow down search results dynamically based on:
    -- Metadata (e.g., tags, IDs, labels)
    -- Numeric thresholds (e.g., only items above/below a value)
    -- Custom user-defined logic
    -
    -This improves both precision and flexibility of search.
    -
    -#### Example: Python API
    -
    -```python
    -from rust_annie import AnnIndex
    -import numpy as np
    -
    -# 1. Create an index with vector dimension 128
    -index = AnnIndex(dimension=128)
    -
    -# 2. Add data with metadata
    -vector0 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)
    -vector1 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)
    -
    -index.add_item(0, vector0, metadata={"category": "A"})
    -index.add_item(1, vector1, metadata={"category": "B"})
    -
    -# 3. Define a filter function (e.g., only include items where category == "A")
    -def category_filter(metadata):
    -    return metadata.get("category") == "A"
    -
    -# 4. Perform search with the filter applied
    -query_vector = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)
    -results = index.search(query_vector, k=5, filter=category_filter)
    -
    -print("Filtered search results:", results)
    -
    -

    Supported Filters

    -

    This library supports applying filters to narrow down ANN search results dynamically.

    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
    Filter typeExample
    EqualsFilter.equals("category", "A")
    Greater thanFilter.gt("score", 0.8)
    Less thanFilter.lt("price", 100)
    Custom predicateFilter.custom(lambda metadata: ...)
    -

    Filters work on the metadata you provide when adding items to the index.

    -

    New Feature: Filtered Search with Custom Python Callbacks

    -

    The library now supports filtered search using custom Python callbacks, allowing for more complex filtering logic directly in Python.

    -

    Example: Filtered Search with Python Callback

    -
    from rust_annie import AnnIndex, Distance
    -import numpy as np
    -
    -# Create index
    -index = AnnIndex(3, Distance.EUCLIDEAN)
    -data = np.array([
    -    [1.0, 2.0, 3.0],
    -    [4.0, 5.0, 6.0],
    -    [7.0, 8.0, 9.0]
    -], dtype=np.float32)
    -ids = np.array([10, 20, 30], dtype=np.int64)
    -index.add(data, ids)
    -
    -# Filter function
    -def even_ids(id: int) -> bool:
    -    return id % 2 == 0
    -
    -# Filtered search
    -query = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0], dtype=np.float32)
    -filtered_ids, filtered_dists = index.search_filter_py(
    -    query, 
    -    k=3, 
    -    filter_fn=even_ids
    -)
    -print(filtered_ids)  # [10, 30] (20 is filtered out)
    -
    -

    Sorting Behavior

    -

    The BruteForceIndex now uses total_cmp for sorting, which provides NaN-resistant sorting behavior. This change ensures that any NaN values in the data are handled consistently, preventing potential issues with partial comparisons.

    -

    Benchmarking Indices

    -

    The library now includes a benchmarking function to evaluate the performance of different index types, specifically PyHnswIndex and AnnIndex. This function measures the average, maximum, and minimum query times, providing insights into the efficiency of each index type.

    -

    Example: Benchmarking Script

    -
    import numpy as np
    -import time
    -from rust_annie import PyHnswIndex, AnnIndex
    -
    -def benchmark(index_cls, name, dim=128, n=10_000, q=100, k=10):
    -    print(f"\nBenchmarking {name} with {n} vectors (dim={dim})...")
    -
    -    # Data
    -    data = np.random.rand(n, dim).astype(np.float32)
    -    ids = np.arange(n, dtype=np.int64)
    -    queries = np.random.rand(q, dim).astype(np.float32)
    -
    -    # Index setup
    -    index = index_cls(dims=dim)
    -    index.add(data, ids)
    -
    -    # Warm-up + Timing
    -    times = []
    -    for i in range(q):
    -        start = time.perf_counter()
    -        _ = index.search(queries[i], k=k)
    -        times.append((time.perf_counter() - start) * 1000)
    -
    -    print(f"  Avg query time: {np.mean(times):.3f} ms")
    -    print(f"  Max query time: {np.max(times):.3f} ms")
    -    print(f"  Min query time: {np.min(times):.3f} ms")
    -

    Integration & Extensibility

    -
      -
    • Filters are exposed from Rust to Python via PyO3 bindings.
    • -
    • New filters can be added by extending src/filters.rs in the Rust code.
    • -
    • Filters integrate cleanly with the existing ANN index search logic, so adding or combining filters doesn't require changes in the core search API.

    The CI/CD pipeline for PyPI publishing has been updated to include parallel jobs for building wheels and source distributions across multiple operating systems and Python versions. This involves concurrency considerations that should be documented for users who are integrating or maintaining the pipeline.

    "},{"location":"concurrency/#pipeline-overview","title":"Pipeline Overview","text":"

    The pipeline is triggered on pushes and pull requests to the main branch, as well as manually via workflow_dispatch. It includes the following jobs:

    • Test: Runs on ubuntu-latest and includes steps for checking out the code, setting up Rust, caching dependencies, running tests, and checking code formatting.
    • Build Wheels: Runs in parallel across ubuntu-latest, windows-latest, and macos-latest for Python versions 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, and 3.11. This job builds the wheels using maturin and uploads them as artifacts.
    • Build Source Distribution: Runs on ubuntu-latest and builds the source distribution using maturin, uploading it as an artifact.
    • Publish to TestPyPI: Publishes the built artifacts to TestPyPI if triggered via workflow_dispatch with the appropriate input.
    • Publish to PyPI: Publishes the built artifacts to PyPI if triggered via workflow_dispatch with the appropriate input.
    "},{"location":"concurrency/#concurrency-considerations","title":"Concurrency Considerations","text":"
    • Parallel Builds: The build-wheels job utilizes a matrix strategy to run builds concurrently across different operating systems and Python versions. This reduces the overall build time but requires careful management of dependencies and environment setup to ensure consistency across platforms.
    • Artifact Management: Artifacts from parallel jobs are downloaded and flattened before publishing to ensure all necessary files are available in a single directory structure for the publish steps.
    • Conditional Publishing: Publishing steps are conditionally executed based on manual triggers and input parameters, allowing for flexible deployment strategies.

    By understanding these concurrency considerations, users can effectively manage and extend the CI/CD pipeline to suit their specific needs.

    This library supports applying filters to narrow down ANN search results dynamically.

    • Filters are exposed from Rust to Python via PyO3 bindings.
    • New filters can be added by extending src/filters.rs in the Rust code.
    • Filters integrate cleanly with the existing ANN index search logic, so adding or combining filters doesn't require changes in the core search API.

    ## ANN Search Filtering\n\nThis document explains how to use the filtering capabilities to improve Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search.\n\n### Why Filtering?\n\nFilters allow you to narrow down search results dynamically based on:\n- Metadata (e.g., tags, IDs, labels)\n- Numeric thresholds (e.g., only items above/below a value)\n- Custom user-defined logic\n\nThis improves both precision and flexibility of search.\n\n#### Example: Python API\n\n```python\nfrom rust_annie import AnnIndex\nimport numpy as np\n\n# 1. Create an index with vector dimension 128\nindex = AnnIndex(dimension=128)\n\n# 2. Add data with metadata\nvector0 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\nvector1 = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\n\nindex.add_item(0, vector0, metadata={\"category\": \"A\"})\nindex.add_item(1, vector1, metadata={\"category\": \"B\"})\n\n# 3. Define a filter function (e.g., only include items where category == \"A\")\ndef category_filter(metadata):\n    return metadata.get(\"category\") == \"A\"\n\n# 4. Perform search with the filter applied\nquery_vector = np.random.rand(128).astype(np.float32)\nresults = index.search(query_vector, k=5, filter=category_filter)\n\nprint(\"Filtered search results:\", results)\n
    "},{"location":"filtering/#supported-filters","title":"Supported Filters","text":"

    This library supports applying filters to narrow down ANN search results dynamically.

    Filter type Example Equals Filter.equals(\"category\", \"A\") Greater than Filter.gt(\"score\", 0.8) Less than Filter.lt(\"price\", 100) Custom predicate Filter.custom(lambda metadata: ...)

    Filters work on the metadata you provide when adding items to the index.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#new-feature-filtered-search-with-custom-python-callbacks","title":"New Feature: Filtered Search with Custom Python Callbacks","text":"

    The library now supports filtered search using custom Python callbacks, allowing for more complex filtering logic directly in Python.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#example-filtered-search-with-python-callback","title":"Example: Filtered Search with Python Callback","text":"
    from rust_annie import AnnIndex, Distance\nimport numpy as np\n\n# Create index\nindex = AnnIndex(3, Distance.EUCLIDEAN)\ndata = np.array([\n    [1.0, 2.0, 3.0],\n    [4.0, 5.0, 6.0],\n    [7.0, 8.0, 9.0]\n], dtype=np.float32)\nids = np.array([10, 20, 30], dtype=np.int64)\nindex.add(data, ids)\n\n# Filter function\ndef even_ids(id: int) -> bool:\n    return id % 2 == 0\n\n# Filtered search\nquery = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0], dtype=np.float32)\nfiltered_ids, filtered_dists = index.search_filter_py(\n    query, \n    k=3, \n    filter_fn=even_ids\n)\nprint(filtered_ids)  # [10, 30] (20 is filtered out)\n
    "},{"location":"filtering/#sorting-behavior","title":"Sorting Behavior","text":"

    The BruteForceIndex now uses total_cmp for sorting, which provides NaN-resistant sorting behavior. This change ensures that any NaN values in the data are handled consistently, preventing potential issues with partial comparisons.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#benchmarking-indices","title":"Benchmarking Indices","text":"

    The library now includes a benchmarking function to evaluate the performance of different index types, specifically PyHnswIndex and AnnIndex. This function measures the average, maximum, and minimum query times, providing insights into the efficiency of each index type.

    "},{"location":"filtering/#example-benchmarking-script","title":"Example: Benchmarking Script","text":"

    • Filters are exposed from Rust to Python via PyO3 bindings.
    • New filters can be added by extending src/filters.rs in the Rust code.
