Vector similarity search is a powerful technology that allows for fast searching of massive datasets. However, filtering in vector search is a complex problem. This article discusses the limitations of the two common methods for adding filters to vector search and introduces Pinecone's solution.
Vector search using brute-force is not feasible for large datasets. Post-filtering, where a filter is applied after the vector search, can be an alternative. However, this approach may result in returning very few or zero results. Increasing the number of results
To use Pinecone, start by installing it with pip and initializing a new index for your data. You can create the index with a specified name, metric, and dimension. After that, you can upload your data in batches using the upsert method

In this excerpt, the author discusses the use of the WHERE clause in vector search and filtering using Pinecone. The author demonstrates how to filter search results based on specific conditions and metadata. They start by printing out the results and IDs, and then proceed
The excerpt discusses the use of metadata filtering in vector search and highlights the impact of different filter conditions on search times. The vectors used in the experiment were randomly generated using np.random.rand, with a vector size of 768. The index contains 1
