Faiss: The Missing Manual
Pinecone's comprehensive tutorial on FAISS (Facebook AI Similarity Search) — the foundational open-source library for approximate nearest neighbor search over dense vectors. Essential reading before choosing or building any vector search system.
Locality-Sensitive Hashing
Locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) is a family of algorithms for approximate nearest-neighbor search — hashing high-dimensional vectors so that similar items hash to the same bucket with high probability. The practical solution to similarity search at scale when exact methods are too slow.
