Release 7.13.3.1 includes a name change: switching the term "angular" to "cosine". This follows the formulation of cosine similarity from Wikipedia. Underlying implementation was and remains cosine similarity. github.com/alexklibisz/elast…

#NeurIPS 2021 Billion-Scale ANN Challenge medium.com/big-ann-benchmark…
Basically ann-benchmarks (github.com/erikbern/ann-benc…) on billion-scale datasets. Also a custom hardware track. Great to see a push toward larger-scale benchmarking!
Thanks to @dmitrykan for telling me about it.

Published my recent blog about vector search in #Elasticsearch in TDS (big thanks to the editors for accepting it): towardsdatascience.com/speed… #knn #opendistro #elastiknn #gsi
Recently released benchmarks for Elastiknn on a multi-node #elasticsearch cluster: elastiknn.com/performance/
More nodes/shards/threads definitely speed things up, but not as simple as N cores = Nx speedup.
Also some interesting related discussion here: discuss.elastic.co/t/one-es-…
