@jobergum @AlexBenedetti @lintool @softwaredoug Youre right, I can use the newly introduced vectorSimilarity function #vectorsimilarity-function" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">solr.apache.org/guide/solr/lat… But I need to either call this for every query-document pair and reorder manually or use the Solr Reranking feature with vectorSimilarity as a ranking function Vespa seems easier 😋

Hey @AlexBenedetti, Im working on dense retrieval in Solr9 and having trouble finding this information anywhere. Is it possible to do brute force kNN search in Solr9? Everything I've seen for Solr9+ has been with HNSW. Trying to compute some metrics similar to ann-benchmarks.

@bryonkuchML @jobergum @lintool @softwaredoug Hi @bryonkuchML , not sure what do you mean with "either call this for every query-document pair and reorder manually". You can use function queries, they run automatically on all solr documents in the search results and you can also associate the resulting value as a score.

I spent some time catching up with the #OpenSource licensed large language models landscape and oh boy, I admit it can be disorientating! Especially if you work with a specific domain and you want to integrate LLMs with Search, mak…lnkd.in/dd37PHpm lnkd.in/dWy--QCW
