::: lancedb.materialized_view.VectorDedupSource
For an existing indexed source, declare and materialize a dedup result without
writing SQL. Creation captures the source version once and waits for the complete
result; remote connections use the service's MV jobs.
```python
from lancedb import vector_dedup
view = db.create_materialized_view(
"images_clean",
vector_dedup("images", column="phash", distance_threshold=4),
)
cleaned = view.table
```
To submit without waiting, call `db.create_materialized_view_async(...)` with the
same source expression and wait on the returned job. To declare only, pass
`with_no_data=True`, then use `view.refresh_async().wait()` when ready. Pass
`dataset_version=...` to `vector_dedup` for an explicit snapshot. The default
policy retains direct representatives (A-B-C without A-C keeps A and C), preserves
the source, and materializes its original columns. Only within-segment/partition
pairs are covered, using the index's distance representation.
