# Fast Elasticsearch Vector Scoring

This Plugin allows you to score Elasticsearch documents based on embedding-vectors, using dot-product or cosine-similarity.

## General
* This plugin was inspired from [This elasticsearch vector scoring plugin](https://github.com/MLnick/elasticsearch-vector-scoring) and [this discussion](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/vector-scoring/85227/6) to achieve 10 times faster processing over the original.
give it a try.
* I gained this substantial speed improvement by using the lucene index directly
* I developed it for my workplace which needs to pick KNN from a set of ~4M vectors. our current ES setup is able to answer this in ~80ms
* **Note: Elasticsearch introduced a similar vector similarity functions in version 7.4 and above. [Elasticsearch version 8.0] (https://www.elastic.co/blog/introducing-approximate-nearest-neighbor-search-in-elasticsearch-8-0) includes native ANN support. This makes this plug-in obsolete for new Elasticsearch versions, unless for some reason their implementation is slower than this plugin**.

## Elasticsearch version
* master branch is designed for Elasticsearch 5.6.9.
* for Elasticsearch 7.9.0 use branch `es-7.9.0`
* for Elasticsearch 7.5.2 use branch `es-7.5.2`
* for Elasticsearch 7.5.0 use branch `es-7.5.0`
* for Elasticsearch 7.2.1 use branch `es-7.2.1`
* for Elasticsearch 7.1.0 use branch `es-7.1`
* for Elasticsearch 6.8.1 use branch `es-6.8.1`
* for Elasticsearch 5.2.2 use branch `es-5.2.2`
* for Elasticsearch 2.4.4 use branch `es-2.4.4`

## Maven configuration
* Clone the project
* `mvn package` to compile the plugin as a zip file
* In the Elasticsearch root folder run `./bin/elasticsearch-plugin install file://<PATH_TO_ZIP>` to install plugin. for example: `./bin/elasticsearch-plugin install file:///Users/lior/dev/fast-elasticsearch-vector-scoring/target/releases/elasticsearch-binary-vector-scoring-5.6.9.zip`

## Usage

### Documents
* Each document you score should have a field containing the base64 representation of your vector. for example:
```
   {
   	"id": 1,
   	....
   	"embedding_vector": "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"
   }
   ```
* Use this field mapping:
```
        "embedding_vector": {
        "type": "binary",
        "doc_values": true
	}
```
* The vector can be of any dimension

### Converting a vector to Base64
to convert an array of float32 to a base64 string we use these example methods:

**Java**
```
public static float[] convertBase64ToArray(String base64Str) {
    final byte[] decode = Base64.getDecoder().decode(base64Str.getBytes());
    final FloatBuffer floatBuffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(decode).asFloatBuffer();
    final float[] dims = new float[floatBuffer.capacity()];
    floatBuffer.get(dims);

return dims;
}

public static String convertArrayToBase64(float[] array) {
    final int capacity = Float.BYTES * array.length;
    final ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.allocate(capacity);
    for (float v : array) {
        bb.putFloat(v);
    }
    bb.rewind();
    final ByteBuffer encodedBB = Base64.getEncoder().encode(bb);

return new String(encodedBB.array());
}
```
**Python**
```
import base64
import numpy as np

dfloat32 = np.dtype('>f4')

def decode_float_list(base64_string):
    bytes = base64.b64decode(base64_string)
    return np.frombuffer(bytes, dtype=dfloat32).tolist()

def encode_array(arr):
    base64_str = base64.b64encode(np.array(arr).astype(dfloat32)).decode("utf-8")
    return base64_str
```

**Ruby**
```
require 'base64'

def decode_float_list(base64_string)
  Base64.strict_decode64(base64_string).unpack('g*')
end

def encode_array(arr)
  Base64.strict_encode64(arr.pack('g*'))
end
```

**Go**
```
import(
    "math"
    "encoding/binary"
    "encoding/base64"
)

func convertArrayToBase64(array []float32) string {
	bytes := make([]byte, 0, 4*len(array))
	for _, a := range array {
		bits := math.Float32bits(a)
		b := make([]byte, 4)
		binary.BigEndian.PutUint32(b, bits)
		bytes = append(bytes, b...)
	}

encoded := base64.StdEncoding.EncodeToString(bytes)
	return encoded
}

func convertBase64ToArray(base64Str string) ([]float32, error) {
	decoded, err := base64.StdEncoding.DecodeString(base64Str)
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

length := len(decoded)
	array := make([]float32, 0, length/4)

for i := 0; i < len(decoded); i += 4 {
		bits := binary.BigEndian.Uint32(decoded[i : i+4])
		f := math.Float32frombits(bits)
		array = append(array, f)
	}
	return array, nil
}
```

### Querying
* For querying the 100 KNN documents use this POST message on your ES index:

For ES 5.X and ES 7.X:

      }
    }
  },
  "size": 100
}
```
* The example above shows a vector of 64 dimensions
* Parameters:
   1. `field`: The field containing the base64 vector.
   2. `cosine`: Boolean. if true - use cosine-similarity, else use dot-product.
   3. `vector`: The vector (comma separated) to compare to.
 
* Note **for ElasticSearch 6 and 7 only**:
   Because scores produced by the script_score function must be non-negative on elasticsearch 7, We convert the dot product score and cosine similarity score by using these simple equations:
    (changed dot product) = e^(original dot product)
    (changed cosine similarity) = ((original cosine similarity) + 1) / 2

We can use these simple equation to convert them to original score.
    (original dot product) = ln(changed dot product)
    (original cosine similarity) = (changed cosine similarity) * 2 - 1

* Question: I've encountered the error `java.lang.IllegalStateException: binaryEmbeddingReader can't be null` while running the query. what should I do?

Answer: this error happens when the plugin fails to access the field you specified in the `field` parameter in at least one of the documents.

To solve it: 
        
	* make sure that **all** the documents in your index contains the filed you specified in the `field` parameter.
see more details [here](https://github.com/lior-k/fast-elasticsearch-vector-scoring/issues/6)
    * make sure that the filed you specified in the `field` parameter has a `binary` type in the index mapping
