+# Contributing to LanceDB
+
+LanceDB is an open-source project and we welcome contributions from the community.
+This document outlines the process for contributing to LanceDB.
+
+## Reporting Issues
+
+If you encounter a bug or have a feature request, please open an issue on the
+[GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb).
+
+## Picking an issue
+
+We track issues on the GitHub issue tracker. If you are looking for something to
+work on, check the [good first issue](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/contribute) label. These issues are typically the best described and have the smallest scope.
+
+If there's an issue you are interested in working on, please leave a comment on the issue. This will help us avoid duplicate work. Additionally, if you have questions about the issue, please ask them in the issue comments. We are happy to provide guidance on how to approach the issue.
+
+## Configuring Git
+
+First, fork the repository on GitHub, then clone your fork:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/<username>/lancedb.git
+cd lancedb
+```
+
+Then add the main repository as a remote:
+
+```bash
+git remote add upstream https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb.git
+git fetch upstream
+```
+
+## Setting up your development environment
+
+We have development environments for Python, Typescript, and Java. Each environment has its own setup instructions.
+
+* [Python](python/CONTRIBUTING.md)
+* [Typescript](nodejs/CONTRIBUTING.md)
+<!-- TODO: add Java contributing guide -->
+* [Documentation](docs/README.md)
+
+
+## Best practices for pull requests
+
+For the best chance of having your pull request accepted, please follow these guidelines:
+
+1. Unit test all bug fixes and new features. Your code will not be merged if it
+   doesn't have tests.
+1. If you change the public API, update the documentation in the `docs` directory.
+1. Aim to minimize the number of changes in each pull request. Keep to solving
+   one problem at a time, when possible.
+1. Before marking a pull request ready-for-review, do a self review of your code.
+   Is it clear why you are making the changes? Are the changes easy to understand?
+1. Use [conventional commit messages](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/) as pull request titles. Examples:
+    * New feature: `feat: adding foo API`
+    * Bug fix: `fix: issue with foo API`
+    * Documentation change: `docs: adding foo API documentation`
+1. If your pull request is a work in progress, leave the pull request as a draft.
+   We will assume the pull request is ready for review when it is opened.
+1. When writing tests, test the error cases. Make sure they have understandable

 ## Building the docs
 
 ### Setup
-1. Install LanceDB. From LanceDB repo root: `pip install -e python`
-2. Install dependencies. From LanceDB repo root: `pip install -r docs/requirements.txt`
-3. Make sure you have node and npm setup
-4. Make sure protobuf and libssl are installed
+1. Install LanceDB Python. See setup in [Python contributing guide](../python/CONTRIBUTING.md).
+   Run `make develop` to install the Python package.
+2. Install documentation dependencies. From LanceDB repo root: `pip install -r docs/requirements.txt`
 
-### Building node module and create markdown files
+### Preview the docs
 
-See [Javascript docs README](./src/javascript/README.md)
-
-### Build docs
-From LanceDB repo root:
-
-Run: `PYTHONPATH=. mkdocs build -f docs/mkdocs.yml`
-
-If successful, you should see a `docs/site` directory that you can verify locally.
-
-### Run local server
-
-You can run a local server to test the docs prior to deployment by navigating to the `docs` directory and running the following command:
-
-```bash
+```shell
 cd docs
 mkdocs serve
 ```
 
-### Run doctest for typescript example
+If you want to just generate the HTML files:
 
-```bash
-cd lancedb/docs
-npm i
-npm run build
-npm run all
+```shell
+PYTHONPATH=. mkdocs build -f docs/mkdocs.yml
+```
+
+If successful, you should see a `docs/site` directory that you can verify locally.
+
+## Adding examples
+
+To make sure examples are correct, we put examples in test files so they can be
+run as part of our test suites.
+
+You can see the tests are at:
+
+* Python: `python/python/tests/docs`
+* Typescript: `nodejs/examples/`
+
+### Checking python examples
+
+```shell
+cd python
+pytest -vv python/tests/docs
+```
+
+### Checking typescript examples
+
+The `@lancedb/lancedb` package must be built before running the tests:
+
+```shell
+pushd nodejs
+npm ci
+npm run build
+popd
+```
+
+Then you can run the examples by going to the `nodejs/examples` directory and
+running the tests like a normal npm package:
+
+```shell
+pushd nodejs/examples
+npm ci
+npm test
+popd
+```
+
+## API documentation
+
+### Python
+
+The Python API documentation is organized based on the file `docs/src/python/python.md`.
+We manually add entries there so we can control the organization of the reference page.
+**However, this means any new types must be manually added to the file.** No additional
+steps are needed to generate the API documentation.
+
+### Typescript
+
+The typescript API documentation is generated from the typescript source code using [typedoc](https://typedoc.org/).
+
+When new APIs are added, you must manually re-run the typedoc command to update the API documentation.
+The new files should be checked into the repository.
+
+```shell
+pushd nodejs
+npm run docs
+popd
 ```

+    - _For example_, For a dataset of 1 million vectors divided into 256 partitions, `nprobes` should be set to ~20-40. This value can be adjusted to achieve the optimal balance between search latency and search quality. <br/>

+### How to choose `m` and `ef_construction` for `IVF_HNSW_*` index?
+
+`m` determines the number of connections a new node establishes with its closest neighbors upon entering the graph. Typically, `m` falls within the range of 5 to 48. Lower `m` values are suitable for low-dimensional data or scenarios where recall is less critical. Conversely, higher `m` values are beneficial for high-dimensional data or when high recall is required. In essence, a larger `m` results in a denser graph with increased connectivity, but at the expense of higher memory consumption.
+
+`ef_construction` balances build speed and accuracy. Higher values increase accuracy but slow down the build process. A typical range is 150 to 300. For good search results, a minimum value of 100 is recommended. In most cases, setting this value above 500 offers no additional benefit. Ensure that `ef_construction` is always set to a value equal to or greater than `ef` in the search phase

-        The asynchronous Python API is new and has some slight differences compared
-        to the synchronous API.  Feel free to start using the asynchronous version.
-        Once all features have migrated we will start to move the synchronous API to
-        use the same syntax as the asynchronous API.  To help with this migration we
-        have created a [migration guide](migration.md) detailing the differences.

-        you to try out `lancedb`.  Once the new API is feature complete we will begin
-        slowly deprecating `vectordb` in favor of `lancedb`. There is a

+This section provides answers to the most common questions asked about LanceDB Cloud. By following these guidelines, you can ensure a smooth, performant experience with LanceDB Cloud.
+
+### Should I reuse the database connection?
+Yes! It is recommended to establish a single database connection and maintain it throughout your interaction with the tables within. 
+
+LanceDB uses HTTP connections to communicate with the servers. By re-using the Connection object, you avoid the overhead of repeatedly establishing HTTP connections, significantly improving efficiency.
+
+### Should I re-use the `Table` object?
+`table = db.open_table()` should be called once and used for all subsequent table operations. If there are changes to the opened table, `table` always reflect the **latest version** of the data. 
+
+### What should I do if I need to search for rows by `id`?
+LanceDB Cloud currently does not support an ID or primary key column. You are recommended to add a 
+user-defined ID column. To significantly improve the query performance with SQL causes, a scalar BITMAP/BTREE index should be created on this column. 
+
+### What are the vector indexing types supported by LanceDB Cloud?
+We support `IVF_PQ` and `IVF_HNSW_SQ` as the `index_type` which is passed to `create_index`. LanceDB Cloud tunes the indexing parameters automatically to achieve the best tradeoff between query latency and query quality.
+
+### When I add new rows to a table, do I need to manually update the index?
+No! LanceDB Cloud triggers an asynchronous background job to index the new vectors.
+
+Even though indexing is asynchronous, your vectors will still be immediately searchable. LanceDB uses brute-force search to search over unindexed rows. This makes you new data is immediately available, but does increase latency temporarily. To disable the brute-force part of search, set the `fast_search` flag in your query to `true`.
+
+### Do I need to reindex the whole dataset if only a small portion of the data is deleted or updated?
+No! Similar to adding data to the table, LanceDB Cloud triggers an asynchronous background job to update the existing indices. Therefore, no action is needed from users and there is absolutely no 
+downtime expected.
+
+### How do I know whether an index has been created?
+While index creation in LanceDB Cloud is generally fast, querying immediately after a `create_index` call may result in errors. It's recommended to use `list_indices` to verify index creation before querying.
+
+### Why is my query latency higher than expected?
+Multiple factors can impact query latency. To reduce query latency, consider the following:
+- Send pre-warm queries: send a few queries to warm up the cache before an actual user query.
+- Check network latency: LanceDB Cloud is hosted in AWS `us-east-1` region. It is recommended to run queries from an EC2 instance that is in the same region.
+- Create scalar indices: If you are filtering on metadata, it is recommended to create scalar indices on those columns. This will speedup searches with metadata filtering. See [here](../guides/scalar_index.md) for more details on creating a scalar index.

+# Understanding HNSW index
+
+Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search is a method for finding data points near a given point in a dataset, though not always the exact nearest one. HNSW is one of the most accurate and fastest Approximate Nearest Neighbour search algorithms, It’s beneficial in high-dimensional spaces where finding the same nearest neighbor would be too slow and costly
+
+[Jump to usage](#usage)
+There are three main types of ANN search algorithms:
+
+* **Tree-based search algorithms**: Use a tree structure to organize and store data points.
+* **Hash-based search algorithms**: Use a specialized geometric hash table to store and manage data points. These algorithms typically focus on theoretical guarantees, and don't usually perform as well as the other approaches in practice.
+* **Graph-based search algorithms**: Use a graph structure to store data points, which can be a bit complex. 
+
+HNSW is a graph-based algorithm. All graph-based search algorithms rely on the idea of a k-nearest neighbor (or k-approximate nearest neighbor) graph, which we outline below.  
+HNSW also combines this with the ideas behind a classic 1-dimensional search data structure: the skip list.
+
+## k-Nearest Neighbor Graphs and k-approximate Nearest neighbor Graphs
+The k-nearest neighbor graph actually predates its use for ANN search. Its construction is quite simple:
+
+* Each vector in the dataset is given an associated vertex.
+* Each vertex has outgoing edges to its k nearest neighbors. That is, the k closest other vertices by Euclidean distance between the two corresponding vectors. This can be thought of as a "friend list" for the vertex.
+* For some applications (including nearest-neighbor search), the incoming edges are also added.
+
+Eventually, it was realized that the following greedy search method over such a graph typically results in good approximate nearest neighbors:
+
+* Given a query vector, start at some fixed "entry point" vertex (e.g. the approximate center node).
+* Look at that vertex's neighbors. If any of them are closer to the query vector than the current vertex, then move to that vertex.
+* Repeat until a local optimum is found.
+
+The above algorithm also generalizes to e.g. top 10 approximate nearest neighbors.
+
+Computing a k-nearest neighbor graph is actually quite slow, taking quadratic time in the dataset size. It was quickly realized that near-identical performance can be achieved using a k-approximate nearest neighbor graph. That is, instead of obtaining the k-nearest neighbors for each vertex, an approximate nearest neighbor search data structure is used to build much faster.  
+In fact, another data structure is not needed: This can be done "incrementally".
+That is, if you start with a k-ANN graph for n-1 vertices, you can extend it to a k-ANN graph for n vertices as well by using the graph to obtain the k-ANN for the new vertex.
+
+One downside of k-NN and k-ANN graphs alone is that one must typically build them with a large value of k to get decent results, resulting in a large index.
+
+
+## HNSW: Hierarchical Navigable Small Worlds
+
+HNSW builds on k-ANN in two main ways:
+
+* Instead of getting the k-approximate nearest neighbors for a large value of k, it sparsifies the k-ANN graph using a carefully chosen "edge pruning" heuristic, allowing for the number of edges per vertex to be limited to a relatively small constant.
+* The "entry point" vertex is chosen dynamically using a recursively constructed data structure on a subset of the data, similarly to a skip list.
+
+This recursive structure can be thought of as separating into layers:
+
+* At the bottom-most layer, an k-ANN graph on the whole dataset is present.
+* At the second layer, a k-ANN graph on a fraction of the dataset (e.g. 10%) is present.
+* At the Lth layer, a k-ANN graph is present. It is over a (constant) fraction (e.g. 10%) of the vectors/vertices present in the L-1th layer.
+
+Then the greedy search routine operates as follows:
+
+* At the top layer (using an arbitrary vertex as an entry point), use the greedy local search routine on the k-ANN graph to get an approximate nearest neighbor at that layer.
+* Using the approximate nearest neighbor found in the previous layer as an entry point, find an approximate nearest neighbor in the next layer with the same method.
+* Repeat until the bottom-most layer is reached. Then use the entry point to find multiple nearest neighbors (e.g. top 10).
+
+
+## Usage
+
+There are three key parameters to set when constructing an HNSW index:
+
+* `metric`: Use an `L2` euclidean distance metric. We also support `dot` and `cosine` distance.
+* `m`: The number of neighbors to select for each vector in the HNSW graph.
+* `ef_construction`: The number of candidates to evaluate during the construction of the HNSW graph.
+
+
+We can combine the above concepts to understand how to build and query an HNSW index in LanceDB.
+
+### Construct index
+
+```python
+import lancedb
+import numpy as np
+uri = "/tmp/lancedb"
+db = lancedb.connect(uri)
+
+# Create 10,000 sample vectors
+data = [

+    for i, row in enumerate(np.random.random((10_000, 1536)).astype('float32'))
+]
+
+# Add the vectors to a table
+tbl = db.create_table("my_vectors", data=data)
+
+# Create and train the HNSW index for a 1536-dimensional vector
+# Make sure you have enough data in the table for an effective training step
+tbl.create_index(index_type=IVF_HNSW_SQ)
+
+```
+
+### Query the index

+# Search using a random 1536-dimensional embedding
+tbl.search(np.random.random((1536))) \
+    .limit(2) \

+Now we can search using text from both the default vector column and the custom vector column
+```python

+# text search
+actual = table.search("man's best friend").limit(1).to_pydantic(Images)[0]
+print(actual.label) # prints "dog"

+
+Because we're using a multi-modal embedding function, we can also search using images
+
+```python
+# image search
+query_image_uri = "http://farm1.staticflickr.com/200/467715466_ed4a31801f_z.jpg"

+# Gemini Embeddings
+With Google's Gemini, you can represent text (words, sentences, and blocks of text) in a vectorized form, making it easier to compare and contrast embeddings. For example, two texts that share a similar subject matter or sentiment should have similar embeddings, which can be identified through mathematical comparison techniques such as cosine similarity. For more on how and why you should use embeddings, refer to the Embeddings guide.
+The Gemini Embedding Model API supports various task types:
+

The default model is `colbert-ir/colbertv2.0` which also has its own special callout - `registry.get("colbert")`. Some Hugging Face models might require custom models defined on the HuggingFace Hub in their own modeling files. You may enable this by setting `trust_remote_code=True`.

+Jina embeddings are used to generate embeddings for text and image data.
+You also need to set the `JINA_API_KEY` environment variable to use the Jina API.
+
+You can find a list of supported models under [https://jina.ai/embeddings/](https://jina.ai/embeddings/)
+
+Supported parameters (to be passed in `create` method) are:
+
+| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `name` | `str` | `"jina-clip-v1"` | The model ID of the jina model to use |
+
+Usage Example:
+
+```python
+    import os
+    import lancedb
+    from lancedb.pydantic import LanceModel, Vector
+    from lancedb.embeddings import EmbeddingFunctionRegistry
+
+    os.environ['JINA_API_KEY'] = 'jina_*'
+
+    jina_embed = EmbeddingFunctionRegistry.get_instance().get("jina").create(name="jina-embeddings-v2-base-en")
+
+
+    class TextModel(LanceModel):
+        text: str = jina_embed.SourceField()
+        vector: Vector(jina_embed.ndims()) = jina_embed.VectorField()
+
+
+    data = [{"text": "hello world"},
+            {"text": "goodbye world"}]

+# VoyageAI Embeddings
+
+Voyage AI provides cutting-edge embedding and rerankers.
+
+
+Using voyageai API requires voyageai package, which can be installed using `pip install voyageai`. Voyage AI embeddings are used to generate embeddings for text data. The embeddings can be used for various tasks like semantic search, clustering, and classification.
+You also need to set the `VOYAGE_API_KEY` environment variable to use the VoyageAI API.
+
+Supported models are:
+
+- voyage-3
+- voyage-3-lite
+- voyage-finance-2
+- voyage-multilingual-2
+- voyage-law-2
+- voyage-code-2
+
+
+Supported parameters (to be passed in `create` method) are:
+
+| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
+|---|---|--------|---------|
+| `name` | `str` | `None` | The model ID of the model to use. Supported base models for Text Embeddings: voyage-3, voyage-3-lite, voyage-finance-2, voyage-multilingual-2, voyage-law-2, voyage-code-2 |
+| `input_type` | `str` | `None` | Type of the input text. Default to None. Other options: query, document. |
+| `truncation` | `bool` | `True` | Whether to truncate the input texts to fit within the context length. |
+
+
+Usage Example:
+    
+```python
+    import lancedb
+    from lancedb.pydantic import LanceModel, Vector
+    from lancedb.embeddings import EmbeddingFunctionRegistry
+

+    To prevent leaking secrets, such as API keys, you should add any sensitive

+    [sensitive_keys()][lancedb.embeddings.base.EmbeddingFunction.sensitive_keys] /
+    [getSensitiveKeys()](../../js/namespaces/embedding/classes/EmbeddingFunction/#getsensitivekeys)
+    method. This prevents users from accidentally instantiating the embedding
+    function with hard-coded secrets.
 
 Now you can use this embedding function to create your table schema and that's it! you can then ingest data and run queries without manually vectorizing the inputs.

+There are various embedding functions available out of the box with LanceDB to manage your embeddings implicitly. We're actively working on adding other popular embedding APIs and models. 🚀
 
-* Embedding functions have an inbuilt rate limit handler wrapper for source and query embedding function calls that retry with exponential backoff. 
-* Each `EmbeddingFunction` implementation automatically takes `max_retries` as an argument which has the default value of 7.
+Before jumping on the list of available models, let's understand how to get an embedding model initialized and configured to use in our code: 
 
-### Sentence transformers
-Allows you to set parameters when registering a `sentence-transformers` object.
-
-!!! info
-    Sentence transformer embeddings are normalized by default. It is recommended to use normalized embeddings for similarity search.
-
-| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `name` | `str` | `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` | The name of the model |
-| `device` | `str` | `cpu` | The device to run the model on (can be `cpu` or `gpu`) |
-| `normalize` | `bool` | `True` | Whether to normalize the input text before feeding it to the model |

-    You can also load many other model architectures from the library. For example models from sources such as BAAI, nomic, salesforce research, etc.
-    See this HF hub page for all [supported models](https://huggingface.co/models?library=sentence-transformers).
-
-!!! note "BAAI Embeddings example"
-    Here is an example that uses BAAI embedding model from the HuggingFace Hub [supported models](https://huggingface.co/models?library=sentence-transformers)
+!!! example "Example usage"
     ```python
-    db = lancedb.connect("/tmp/db")
-    registry = EmbeddingFunctionRegistry.get_instance()
-    model = registry.get("sentence-transformers").create(name="BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5", device="cpu")
-
-    class Words(LanceModel):
-        text: str = model.SourceField()
-        vector: Vector(model.ndims()) = model.VectorField()
-
-    table = db.create_table("words", schema=Words)
-    table.add(
-        [
-            {"text": "hello world"}
-            {"text": "goodbye world"}
-        ]
-    )
-
-    query = "greetings"
-    actual = table.search(query).limit(1).to_pydantic(Words)[0]

-### OpenAI embeddings
-LanceDB registers the OpenAI embeddings function in the registry by default, as `openai`. Below are the parameters that you can customize when creating the instances:
-
-| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `name` | `str` | `"text-embedding-ada-002"` | The name of the model. |
-| `dim` | `int` |  Model default   | For OpenAI's newer text-embedding-3 model, we can specify a dimensionality that is smaller than the 1536 size. This feature supports it |
-
 
+Now let's understand the above syntax: 
 ```python
-db = lancedb.connect("/tmp/db")
-registry = EmbeddingFunctionRegistry.get_instance()
-func = registry.get("openai").create()
-
-class Words(LanceModel):
-    text: str = func.SourceField()
-    vector: Vector(func.ndims()) = func.VectorField()
-
-table = db.create_table("words", schema=Words)
-table.add(
-    [
-        {"text": "hello world"}
-        {"text": "goodbye world"}
-    ]
-    )
-
-query = "greetings"
-actual = table.search(query).limit(1).to_pydantic(Words)[0]
-print(actual.text)
+model = get_registry().get("model_id").create(...params)
 ```
+**This👆 line effectively creates a configured instance of an `embedding function` with `model` of choice that is ready for use.**
 
-### Instructor Embeddings
-[Instructor](https://instructor-embedding.github.io/) is an instruction-finetuned text embedding model that can generate text embeddings tailored to any task (e.g. classification, retrieval, clustering, text evaluation, etc.) and domains (e.g. science, finance, etc.) by simply providing the task instruction, without any finetuning.
+- `get_registry()` :  This function call returns an instance of a `EmbeddingFunctionRegistry` object. This registry manages the registration and retrieval of embedding functions.
 
-If you want to calculate customized embeddings for specific sentences, you can follow the unified template to write instructions.
+- `.get("model_id")` : This method call on the registry object and retrieves the **embedding models functions** associated with the `"model_id"` (1) .
+    { .annotate }
 
-!!! info
-    Represent the `domain` `text_type` for `task_objective`:
+    1.  Hover over the names in table below to find out the `model_id` of different embedding functions.
 
-    * `domain` is optional, and it specifies the domain of the text, e.g. science, finance, medicine, etc.
-    * `text_type` is required, and it specifies the encoding unit, e.g. sentence, document, paragraph, etc.
-    * `task_objective` is optional, and it specifies the objective of embedding, e.g. retrieve a document, classify the sentence, etc.
+- `.create(...params)` : This method call is on the object returned by the `get` method. It instantiates an embedding model function using the **specified parameters**. 
 
-More information about the model can be found at the [source URL](https://github.com/xlang-ai/instructor-embedding).
+??? question "What parameters does the `.create(...params)` method accepts?"
+    **Checkout the documentation of specific embedding models (links in the table below👇) to know what parameters it takes**.
 
-| Argument | Type | Default | Description |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `name` | `str` | "hkunlp/instructor-base" | The name of the model to use |
-| `batch_size` | `int` | `32` | The batch size to use when generating embeddings |
-| `device` | `str` | `"cpu"` | The device to use when generating embeddings |
-| `show_progress_bar` | `bool` | `True` | Whether to show a progress bar when generating embeddings |
-| `normalize_embeddings` | `bool` | `True` | Whether to normalize the embeddings |
-| `quantize` | `bool` | `False` | Whether to quantize the model |
-| `source_instruction` | `str` | `"represent the docuement for retreival"` | The instruction for the source column |
-| `query_instruction` | `str` | `"represent the document for retreiving the most similar documents"` | The instruction for the query |
+!!! tip "Moving on"
+    Now that we know how to get the **desired embedding model** and use it in our code, let's explore the comprehensive **list** of embedding models **supported by LanceDB**, in the tables below.
+
+## Text Embedding Functions 📝 
+These functions are registered by default to handle text embeddings.
+
+- 🔄 **Embedding functions** have an inbuilt rate limit handler wrapper for source and query embedding function calls that retry with **exponential backoff**. 
+
+- 🌕 Each `EmbeddingFunction` implementation automatically takes `max_retries` as an argument which has the default value of 7.

-### Gemini Embeddings
-With Google's Gemini, you can represent text (words, sentences, and blocks of text) in a vectorized form, making it easier to compare and contrast embeddings. For example, two texts that share a similar subject matter or sentiment should have similar embeddings, which can be identified through mathematical comparison techniques such as cosine similarity. For more on how and why you should use embeddings, refer to the Embeddings guide.
-The Gemini Embedding Model API supports various task types:
-
-| Task Type               | Description                                                                                                                                                |
-|-------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-| "`retrieval_query`"     | Specifies the given text is a query in a search/retrieval setting.                                                                                         |
-| "`retrieval_document`"  | Specifies the given text is a document in a search/retrieval setting. Using this task type requires a title but is automatically proided by Embeddings API |
-| "`semantic_similarity`" | Specifies the given text will be used for Semantic Textual Similarity (STS).                                                                               |
-| "`classification`"      | Specifies that the embeddings will be used for classification.                                                                                             |
-| "`clusering`"           | Specifies that the embeddings will be used for clustering.                                                                                                 |

-## Multi-modal embedding functions
-Multi-modal embedding functions allow you to query your table using both images and text.
-
-### OpenClip embeddings
-We support CLIP model embeddings using the open source alternative, [open-clip](https://github.com/mlfoundations/open_clip) which supports various customizations. It is registered as `open-clip` and supports the following customizations:
-
-| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `name` | `str` | `"ViT-B-32"` | The name of the model. |
-| `pretrained` | `str` | `"laion2b_s34b_b79k"` | The name of the pretrained model to load. |
-| `device` | `str` | `"cpu"` | The device to run the model on. Can be `"cpu"` or `"gpu"`. |
-| `batch_size` | `int` | `64` | The number of images to process in a batch. |
-| `normalize` | `bool` | `True` | Whether to normalize the input images before feeding them to the model. |
-
-This embedding function supports ingesting images as both bytes and urls. You can query them using both test and other images.
-
-!!! info
-    LanceDB supports ingesting images directly from accessible links.
-
-```python
-
-db = lancedb.connect(tmp_path)
-registry = EmbeddingFunctionRegistry.get_instance()
-func = registry.get("open-clip").create()
-
-class Images(LanceModel):
-    label: str
-    image_uri: str = func.SourceField() # image uri as the source
-    image_bytes: bytes = func.SourceField() # image bytes as the source
-    vector: Vector(func.ndims()) = func.VectorField() # vector column 
-    vec_from_bytes: Vector(func.ndims()) = func.VectorField() # Another vector column 
-
-table = db.create_table("images", schema=Images)
-labels = ["cat", "cat", "dog", "dog", "horse", "horse"]
-uris = [
-    "http://farm1.staticflickr.com/53/167798175_7c7845bbbd_z.jpg",
-    "http://farm1.staticflickr.com/134/332220238_da527d8140_z.jpg",
-    "http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8387/8602747737_2e5c2a45d4_z.jpg",
-    "http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4092/5017326486_1f46057f5f_z.jpg",
-    "http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8216/8434969557_d37882c42d_z.jpg",
-    "http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5142/5835678453_4f3a4edb45_z.jpg",
-]
-# get each uri as bytes
-image_bytes = [requests.get(uri).content for uri in uris]
-table.add(
-    [{"label": labels, "image_uri": uris, "image_bytes": image_bytes}]
-)
-```
-Now we can search using text from both the default vector column and the custom vector column
-```python
-
-# text search
-actual = table.search("man's best friend").limit(1).to_pydantic(Images)[0]
-print(actual.label) # prints "dog"
-
-frombytes = (
-    table.search("man's best friend", vector_column_name="vec_from_bytes")
-    .limit(1)
-    .to_pydantic(Images)[0]
-)
-print(frombytes.label)
-
-```
-
-Because we're using a multi-modal embedding function, we can also search using images
-
-```python
-# image search
-query_image_uri = "http://farm1.staticflickr.com/200/467715466_ed4a31801f_z.jpg"
-image_bytes = requests.get(query_image_uri).content
-query_image = Image.open(io.BytesIO(image_bytes))
-actual = table.search(query_image).limit(1).to_pydantic(Images)[0]
-print(actual.label == "dog")
-
-# image search using a custom vector column
-other = (
-    table.search(query_image, vector_column_name="vec_from_bytes")
-    .limit(1)
-    .to_pydantic(Images)[0]
-)
-print(actual.label)
-
-```
-
-### Imagebind embeddings
-We have support for [imagebind](https://github.com/facebookresearch/ImageBind) model embeddings. You can download our version of the packaged model via - `pip install imagebind-packaged==0.1.2`.
-
-This function is registered as `imagebind` and supports Audio, Video and Text modalities(extending to Thermal,Depth,IMU data):
-
-| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `name` | `str` | `"imagebind_huge"` | Name of the model. |
-| `device` | `str` | `"cpu"` | The device to run the model on. Can be `"cpu"` or `"gpu"`. |
-| `normalize` | `bool` | `False` | set to `True` to normalize your inputs before model ingestion. |
-
-Below is an example demonstrating how the API works:
-
-```python
-db = lancedb.connect(tmp_path)
-registry = EmbeddingFunctionRegistry.get_instance()
-func = registry.get("imagebind").create()
-
-class ImageBindModel(LanceModel):
-    text: str
-    image_uri: str = func.SourceField()
-    audio_path: str
-    vector: Vector(func.ndims()) = func.VectorField()
-

+# Understand Embeddings
+
+The term **dimension** is a synonym for the number of elements in a feature vector. Each feature can be thought of as a different axis in a geometric space. 
+
+High-dimensional data means there are many features(or attributes) in the data.
+
+!!! example
+     1. An image is a data point and it might have thousands of dimensions because each pixel could be considered as a feature. 
+
+     2. Text data, when represented by each word or character, can also lead to high dimensions, especially when considering all possible words in a language.
+
+Embedding captures **meaning and relationships** within data by mapping high-dimensional data into a lower-dimensional space. It captures it by placing inputs that are more **similar in meaning** closer together in the **embedding space**. 
+
+## What are Vector Embeddings?
+
+Vector embeddings is a way to convert complex data, like text, images, or audio into numerical coordinates (called vectors) that can be plotted in an n-dimensional space(embedding space). 
+
+The closer these data points are related in the real world, the closer their corresponding numerical coordinates (vectors) will be to each other in the embedding space. This proximity in the embedding space reflects their semantic similarities, allowing machines to intuitively understand and process the data in a way that mirrors human perception of relationships and meaning.
+
+In a way, it captures the most important aspects of the data while ignoring the less important ones. As a result, tasks like searching for related content or identifying patterns become more efficient and accurate, as the embeddings make it possible to quantify how **closely related** different **data points** are and **reduce** the **computational complexity**.
+
+??? question "Are vectors and embeddings the same thing?"
+
+    When we say “vectors” we mean - **list of numbers** that **represents the data**. 
+    When we say “embeddings” we mean - **list of numbers** that **capture important details and relationships**.
+
+    Although the terms are often used interchangeably, “embeddings” highlight how the data is represented with meaning and structure, while “vector” simply refers to the numerical form of that representation.
+
+## Embedding vs Indexing
+
+We already saw that creating **embeddings** on data is a method of creating **vectors** for a **n-dimensional embedding space** that captures the meaning and relationships inherent in the data.
+
+Once we have these **vectors**, indexing comes into play. Indexing is a method of organizing these vector embeddings, that allows us to quickly and efficiently locate and retrieve them from the entire dataset of vector embeddings.
+
+## What types of data/objects can be embedded?
+
+The following are common types of data that can be embedded:
+
+1. **Text**: Text data includes sentences, paragraphs, documents, or any written content.
+2. **Images**:  Image data encompasses photographs, illustrations, or any visual content.
+3. **Audio**: Audio data includes sounds, music, speech, or any auditory content.
+4. **Video**:  Video data consists of moving images and sound, which can convey complex information.
+
+Large datasets of multi-modal data (text, audio, images, etc.) can be converted into embeddings with the appropriate model.
+
+!!! tip "LanceDB vs Other traditional Vector DBs"
+    While many vector databases primarily focus on the storage and retrieval of vector embeddings, **LanceDB** uses **Lance file format** (operates on a disk-based architecture), which allows for the storage and management of not just embeddings but also **raw file data (bytes)**. This capability means that users can integrate various types of data, including images and text, alongside their vector embeddings in a unified system.
+
+    With the ability to store both vectors and associated file data, LanceDB enhances the querying process. Users can perform semantic searches that not only retrieve similar embeddings but also access related files and metadata, thus streamlining the workflow.
+
+## How does embedding works?
+
+As mentioned, after creating embedding, each data point is represented as a vector in a n-dimensional space (embedding space). The dimensionality of this space can vary depending on the complexity of the data and the specific embedding technique used.
+
+Points that are close to each other in vector space are considered similar (or appear in similar contexts), and points that are far away are considered dissimilar. To quantify this closeness, we use distance as a metric which can be measured in the  following way - 
+
+1. **Euclidean Distance (L2)**: It calculates the straight-line distance between two points (vectors) in a multidimensional space.
+2. **Cosine Similarity**: It measures the cosine of the angle between two vectors, providing a normalized measure of similarity based on their direction.
+3. **Dot product**: It is calculated as the sum of the products of their corresponding components. To measure relatedness it considers both the magnitude and direction of the vectors.
+
+## How do you create and store vector embeddings for your data?
+
+1. **Creating embeddings**: Choose an embedding model, it can be a pre-trained model (open-source or commercial) or you can train a custom embedding model for your scenario. Then feed your preprocessed data into the chosen model to obtain embeddings.
+
+??? question "Popular choices for embedding models"
+    For text data, popular choices are OpenAI’s text-embedding models, Google Gemini text-embedding models, Cohere’s Embed models, and SentenceTransformers, etc.
+
+    For image data, popular choices are CLIP (Contrastive Language–Image Pretraining), Imagebind embeddings by meta (supports audio, video, and image), and Jina multi-modal embeddings, etc.
+
+2. **Storing vector embeddings**: This effectively requires **specialized databases** that can handle the complexity of vector data, as traditional databases often struggle with this task. Vector databases are designed specifically for storing and querying vector embeddings. They optimize for efficient nearest-neighbor searches and provide built-in indexing mechanisms.
+
+!!! tip "Why LanceDB"
+    LanceDB **automates** the entire process of creating and storing embeddings for your data. LanceDB allows you to define and use **embedding functions**, which can be **pre-trained models** or **custom models**. 
+    
+    This enables you to **generate** embeddings tailored to the nature of your data (e.g., text, images) and **store** both the **original data** and **embeddings** in a **structured schema** thus providing efficient querying capabilities for similarity searches.

+# Variable and Secrets
+
+Most embedding configuration options are saved in the table's metadata. However,
+this isn't always appropriate. For example, API keys should never be stored in the
+metadata. Additionally, other configuration options might be best set at runtime,
+such as the `device` configuration that controls whether to use GPU or CPU for
+inference. If you hardcoded this to GPU, you wouldn't be able to run the code on
+a server without one.
+
+To handle these cases, you can set variables on the embedding registry and
+reference them in the embedding configuration. These variables will be available
+during the runtime of your program, but not saved in the table's metadata. When
+the table is loaded from a different process, the variables must be set again.
+
+To set a variable, use the `set_var()` / `setVar()` method on the embedding registry.
+To reference a variable, use the syntax `$env:VARIABLE_NAME`. If there is a default
+value, you can use the syntax `$env:VARIABLE_NAME:DEFAULT_VALUE`.
+
+## Using variables to set secrets
+
+Sensitive configuration, such as API keys, must either be set as environment
+variables or using variables on the embedding registry. If you pass in a hardcoded
+value, LanceDB will raise an error. Instead, if you want to set an API key via
+configuration, use a variable:

+    ```
+
+## Using variables to set the device parameter
+
+Many embedding functions that run locally have a `device` parameter that controls
+whether to use GPU or CPU for inference. Because not all computers have a GPU,
+it's helpful to be able to set the `device` parameter at runtime, rather than
+have it hard coded in the embedding configuration. To make it work even if the
+variable isn't set, you could provide a default value of `cpu` in the embedding
+configuration.
+
+Some embedding libraries even have a method to detect which devices are available,
+which could be used to dynamically set the device at runtime. For example, in Python
+you can check if a CUDA GPU is available using `torch.cuda.is_available()`.
