Weaviate

Weaviate is an open-source vector database. It allows you to store data objects and vector embeddings from your favorite ML-models, and scale seamlessly into billions of data objects.

This notebook shows how to use functionality related to the Weaviatevector database.

See the Weaviate installation instructions.

We want to use OpenAIEmbeddings so we have to get the OpenAI API Key.

os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = getpass.getpass("OpenAI API Key:")

Tonight. I call on the Senate to: Pass the Freedom to Vote Act. Pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. And while you’re at it, pass the Disclose Act so Americans can know who is funding our elections. 

Tonight, I’d like to honor someone who has dedicated his life to serve this country: Justice Stephen Breyer—an Army veteran, Constitutional scholar, and retiring Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Justice Breyer, thank you for your service.

One of the most serious constitutional responsibilities a President has is nominating someone to serve on the United States Supreme Court.

And I did that 4 days ago, when I nominated Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. One of our nation’s top legal minds, who will continue Justice Breyer’s legacy of excellence.

Similarity search with score

Sometimes we might want to perform the search, but also obtain a relevancy score to know how good is a particular result. The returned distance score is cosine distance. Therefore, a lower score is better.

Anything uploaded to weaviate is automatically persistent into the database. You do not need to call any specific method or pass any param for this to happen.

Retriever options

Retriever options

This section goes over different options for how to use Weaviate as a retriever.

MMR

In addition to using similarity search in the retriever object, you can also use mmr.

retriever = db.as_retriever(search_type="mmr")
retriever.get_relevant_documents(query)[0]
Document(page_content='Tonight. I call on the Senate to: Pass the Freedom to Vote Act. Pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. And while you’re at it, pass the Disclose Act so Americans can know who is funding our elections. \n\nTonight, I’d like to honor someone who has dedicated his life to serve this country: Justice Stephen Breyer—an Army veteran, Constitutional scholar, and retiring Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Justice Breyer, thank you for your service. \n\nOne of the most serious constitutional responsibilities a President has is nominating someone to serve on the United States Supreme Court. \n\nAnd I did that 4 days ago, when I nominated Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. One of our nation’s top legal minds, who will continue Justice Breyer’s legacy of excellence.', metadata={'source': '../../../state_of_the_union.txt'})

Question Answering with Sources

This section goes over how to do question-answering with sources over an Index. It does this by using the RetrievalQAWithSourcesChain, which does the lookup of the documents from an Index.
