Introduction

This lib creates quantized indices for similarity search on dense vectors. Once the index is created with this library, you can use deepr_knn to deploy you index and use it through an API.

Installing the requirements

  1. First, create a virtual environement with python3 -m venv .venvs/quantization_env

  2. Then, activate it with source .venvs/quantization_env/bin/activate

  3. Next, go to deepr_python/autofaiss with cd command

  4. Finally, install autofaiss with pip install -e .

It is now possible to use the CLI commands and run the notebooks.
