Thank you! I shall play with it this weekend :D

This is pretty cool. The dot product would give the unnormalized cosine similarity from a smaller pool. Thank you so much!

Yes, I think vector search is tricky to navigate at times since now the onus is on the user to explain the problem well. However, you can copy paste full abstracts to get similar papers well enough. I will fix the LaTeX rendering ASAP. Than

> Recommend reranking. Will explore it thoroughly then! > MixedBread supports matryoshka embeddings too so that’s another option to explore on the latency-recall curve. Yes, exactly why I went with this model!

Exactly. Full text paradigm has it's own pros and I believe we need those tools in the new vector search to take full advantage. I am planning to add keywords feature where if a user enters something in "quotes", the would ne

1. The model size was small enough to process the corpus fast-ish using the limited resources I have. They also support MRL and binary embeddings which help would be helpful in case I need to downsize on the VM size. 2. Close to 500ms. See

That's has a major downgrade. For binary embeddings, the top 10 results are same as fp32, albeit shuffled. However after the 10th result, I think quality degrades quite a bit. I was planning to add a reranking strategy for binary embed

Absolutely! Here is a graph showing the difference. [^1] Known ID is arXiv ID that is in the vector database, Unknown IDs need the metadata to be fetched via API. Text is embedded via the model's API. FLAT and IVF_FLAT are different in

Perfect! Although, atm I am only using retrieval without any LLM involved. Might try integrating if it significantly improves UX without compromising speeds.

Not sure about the semantic search, but preprints are peer reviewed and hence not vetted. However, at the current pace of papers on arXiv (5k+/week) peer review alone might halt the progress.

This is quite unique. I believe a custom solution might help you better than Google Scholar.

All benefits depend on the ability of the embedding model. Semantic embeddings understand nuances, so they can match abstracts that align conceptually even if no exact keywords overlap. For example, "neural networks" vs. "dee

Full text search would be redundant as arXiv.org already supports it. For semantic search, Typesense has limited collection of embedding models. [^1] [1]: https://huggingface.co/typesense/models/tree/main

At the beginning of the project, MixedBread's embedding model was small and leading the MTEB leaderboard [^1], hence I went with it. Yes, I did binarize them for a faster search experience. However, I think the search quality degrades

Thank you for the link. Would you know any reliable small model to add on top of vanilla search for a similar experience?

I definitely was thinking about something like this for PaperMatch itself. Where anyone can pull a docker image and search through the articles locally! Do you think this idea is worthwhile pursuing?

Thank you for the appreciation and great feedback! | If you expand beyond arxiv, keep in mind since coverage matters for lit reviews, I do have PaperMatchBio [^1] for bioRxiv and PaperMatchMed [^2] for medRxiv, however I do agree having mul

It is more like what triilman commented, but with all components open-source. I plan to add filters soon enough with keywords support! (actually waiting for milvus)
