Debanjum Singh Solanky 4a90972e38 Use a better model for asymmetric semantic search
- The multi-qa-MiniLM-L6-cos-v1 is more extensively benchmarked[1]
- It has the right mix of model query speed, size and performance on benchmarks
- On hugging face it has way more downloads and likes than the msmarco model[2]
- On very preliminary evaluation of the model
  - It doubles the encoding speed of all entries (down from ~8min to 4mins)
  - It gave more entries that stay relevant to the query (3/5 vs 1/5 earlier)

Semantic Search

Allow natural language search on user content like notes, images using transformer based models

All data is processed locally. User can interface with semantic-search app via Emacs, API or Commandline

Dependencies

Install

git clone https://github.com/debanjum/semantic-search && cd semantic-search
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate semantic-search

Run

Load ML model, generate embeddings and expose API to query specified org-mode files

python3 main.py --input-files ~/Notes/Schedule.org ~/Notes/Incoming.org --verbose

Use
