Hyperbolic Search on Zilliz Cloud
SummaryAI, from the source post

This post measures the performance of hyperbolic embeddings on Zilliz Cloud, comparing raw and centered vectors. It demonstrates that centering vectors improves recall@10 by 88% and that a single search can achieve 0.98 recall. It also quantifies capacity, showing that a 1 CU cluster can hold at least 2.8 million 513-dimensional vectors. Latency benchmarks compare different search levels and strategies, including reranking within Zilliz Cloud, showing that centered Strategy A at level=10 achieves 0.977 recall at 3.75 ms with high throughput, and that reranking within the database is faster than application-side reranking for larger candidate sets.
