💡What is Vector Streaming

Vector Streaming enables you to process and generate embeddings for files and stream them, so if you have 10 GB of file, it can continuously generate embeddings Chunk by Chunk, that you can segment semantically, and store them in the vector database of your choice, Thus it eliminates bulk embeddings storage on RAM at once. The embedding process happens separetly from the main process, so as to maintain high performance enabled by rust MPSC.

⭐ Supported Models

We support any hugging-face models on Candle. And We also support ONNX runtime for BERT and ColPali.

How to add custom model on candle: from_pretrained_hf

model = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_hf(
    WhichModel.Bert, model_id="model link from huggingface"
)
config = TextEmbedConfig(chunk_size=200, batch_size=32)
data = embed_anything.embed_file("file_address", embedder=model, config=config)

Model	HF link
Jina	Jina Models
Bert	All Bert based models

results: list[RerankerResult] = reranker.rerank(["What is the capital of France?"], ["France is a country in Europe.", "Paris is the capital of France."], 2)

For Semantic Chunking

model = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_hf(
    WhichModel.Bert, model_id="sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L12-v2"
)

# with semantic encoder
semantic_encoder = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_hf(WhichModel.Jina, model_id = "jinaai/jina-embeddings-v2-small-en")
config = TextEmbedConfig(chunk_size=256, batch_size=32, splitting_strategy = "semantic", semantic_encoder=semantic_encoder)

🧑‍🚀 Getting Started

💚 Installation

pip install embed-anything

For GPUs and using special models like ColPali

pip install embed-anything-gpu

Usage

➡️ Usage For 0.3 and later version

To use local embedding: we support Bert and Jina

model = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_local(
    WhichModel.Bert, model_id="Hugging_face_link"
)
data = embed_anything.embed_file("test_files/test.pdf", embedder=model)

For multimodal embedding: we support CLIP

Requirements Directory with pictures you want to search for example we have test_files with images of cat, dogs etc

import embed_anything
from embed_anything import EmbedData
model = embed_anything.EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_local(
    embed_anything.WhichModel.Clip,
    model_id="openai/clip-vit-base-patch16",
    # revision="refs/pr/15",
)
data: list[EmbedData] = embed_anything.embed_directory("test_files", embedder=model)
embeddings = np.array([data.embedding for data in data])
query = ["Photo of a monkey?"]
query_embedding = np.array(
    embed_anything.embed_query(query, embedder=model)[0].embedding
)
similarities = np.dot(embeddings, query_embedding)
max_index = np.argmax(similarities)
Image.open(data[max_index].text).show()

Audio Embedding using Whisper

requirements: Audio .wav files.

import embed_anything
from embed_anything import (
    AudioDecoderModel,
    EmbeddingModel,
    embed_audio_file,
    TextEmbedConfig,
)
# choose any whisper or distilwhisper model from https://huggingface.co/distil-whisper or https://huggingface.co/collections/openai/whisper-release-6501bba2cf999715fd953013
audio_decoder = AudioDecoderModel.from_pretrained_hf(
    "openai/whisper-tiny.en", revision="main", model_type="tiny-en", quantized=False
)
embedder = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_hf(
    embed_anything.WhichModel.Bert,
    model_id="sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2",
    revision="main",
)
config = TextEmbedConfig(chunk_size=200, batch_size=32)
data = embed_anything.embed_audio_file(
    "test_files/audio/samples_hp0.wav",
    audio_decoder=audio_decoder,
    embedder=embedder,
    text_embed_config=config,
)
print(data[0].metadata)

Using ONNX Models

To use ONNX models, you can either use the ONNXModel enum or the model_id from the Hugging Face model.

model = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_onnx(
  WhichModel.Bert, model_name = ONNXModel.AllMiniLML6V2Q
)

For some models, you can also specify the dtype to use for the model.

model = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_onnx(
    WhichModel.Bert, ONNXModel.ModernBERTBase, dtype = Dtype.Q4F16
)

Using the above method is best to ensure that the model works correctly as these models are tested. But if you want to use other models, like finetuned models, you can use the hf_model_id and path_in_repo to load the model like below.

model = EmbeddingModel.from_pretrained_onnx(
  WhichModel.Jina, hf_model_id = "jinaai/jina-embeddings-v2-small-en", path_in_repo="model.onnx"
)

🏎️ RoadMap

Accomplishments

One of the aims of EmbedAnything is to allow AI engineers to easily use state of the art embedding models on typical files and documents. A lot has already been accomplished here and these are the formats that we support right now and a few more have to be done.

Adding Fine-tuning

One of the major goals of this year is to add finetuning these models on your data. Like a simple sentence transformer does.

🖼️ Modalities and Source

We’re excited to share that we've expanded our platform to support multiple modalities, including:

• Audio files

• Markdowns

• Websites

• Images

• Videos

• Graph

This gives you the flexibility to work with various data types all in one place! 🌐

💜 Product

We’ve rolled out some major updates in version 0.3 to improve both functionality and performance. Here’s what’s new:

• Semantic Chunking: Optimized chunking strategy for better Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) workflows.

• Streaming for Efficient Indexing: We’ve introduced streaming for memory-efficient indexing in vector databases. Want to know more? Check out our article on this feature here: https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2024/09/vector-streaming/

• Zero-Shot Applications: Explore our zero-shot application demos to see the power of these updates in action.

• Intuitive Functions: Version 0.3 includes a complete refactor for more intuitive functions, making the platform easier to use.

• Chunkwise Streaming: Instead of file-by-file streaming, we now support chunkwise streaming, allowing for more flexible and efficient data processing.

Check out the latest release : and see how these features can supercharge your GenerativeAI pipeline! ✨

🚀Coming Soon

⚙️ Performance

We've received quite a few questions about why we're using Candle, so here's a quick explanation:

One of the main reasons is that Candle doesn't require any specific ONNX format models, which means it can work seamlessly with any Hugging Face model. This flexibility has been a key factor for us. However, we also recognize that we’ve been compromising a bit on speed in favor of that flexibility.

What’s Next? To address this, we’re excited to announce that we’re introducing Candle-ONNX along with our previous framework on hugging-face ,

➡️ Support for GGUF models

• Significantly faster performance
  
• Stay tuned for these exciting updates! 🚀
  

🫐Embeddings:

We had multimodality from day one for our infrastructure. We have already included it for websites, images and audios but we want to expand it further to.

☑️Graph embedding -- build deepwalks embeddings depth first and word to vec
