| Repository with files to perform BM25 searches with [FastEmbed](https://github.com/qdrant/fastembed). |
|
|
| [BM25 (Best Matching 25)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okapi_BM25) is a ranking function used by search engines to estimate the relevance of documents to a given search query. |
|
|
| ### Usage |
|
|
| > Note: |
| This model is supposed to be used with Qdrant. Vectors have to be configured with [Modifier.IDF](https://qdrant.tech/documentation/concepts/indexing/?q=modifier#idf-modifier). |
|
|
| Here's an example of BM25 with [FastEmbed](https://github.com/qdrant/fastembed). |
|
|
| ```py |
| from fastembed import SparseTextEmbedding |
| |
| documents = [ |
| "You should stay, study and sprint.", |
| "History can only prepare us to be surprised yet again.", |
| ] |
| |
| model = SparseTextEmbedding(model_name="Qdrant/bm25") |
| embeddings = list(model.embed(documents)) |
| |
| # [ |
| # SparseEmbedding( |
| # values=array([1.67419738, 1.67419738, 1.67419738, 1.67419738]), |
| # indices=array([171321964, 1881538586, 150760872, 1932363795])), |
| # SparseEmbedding(values=array( |
| # [1.66973021, 1.66973021, 1.66973021, 1.66973021, 1.66973021]), |
| # indices=array([ |
| # 578407224, 1849833631, 1008800696, 2090661150, |
| # 1117393019 |
| # ])) |
| # ] |
