By default, pgvector performs exact nearest neighbor search, which provides perfect recall.
|
||||
|
||||
You can add an index to use approximate nearest neighbor search, which trades some recall for speed. Unlike typical indexes, you will see different results for queries after adding an approximate index.
|
||||
|
||||
Supported index types are:
|
||||
|
||||
- [IVFFlat](#ivfflat)
|
||||
- [HNSW](#hnsw) - *added in 0.5.0*
|
||||
|
||||
## IVFFlat
|
||||
|
||||
An IVFFlat index divides vectors into lists, and then searches a subset of those lists that are closest to the query vector. It has faster build times and uses less memory than HNSW, but has lower query performance (in terms of speed-recall tradeoff).

## HNSW
|
||||
|
||||
An HNSW index creates a multilayer graph. It has slower build times and uses more memory than IVFFlat, but has better query performance (in terms of speed-recall tradeoff). There’s no training step like IVFFlat, so the index can be created without any data in the table.
|
||||
|
||||
Add an index for each distance function you want to use.
|
||||
|
||||
L2 distance
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE INDEX ON items USING hnsw (embedding vector_l2_ops);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Inner product
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE INDEX ON items USING hnsw (embedding vector_ip_ops);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Cosine distance
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE INDEX ON items USING hnsw (embedding vector_cosine_ops);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Vectors with up to 2,000 dimensions can be indexed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Index Options
|
||||
|
||||
Specify HNSW parameters
|
||||
|
||||
- `m` - the max number of connections per layer (16 by default)
|
||||
- `ef_construction` - the size of the dynamic candidate list for constructing the graph (64 by default)
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE INDEX ON items USING hnsw (embedding vector_l2_ops) WITH (m = 16, ef_construction = 64);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Query Options
|
||||
|
||||
Specify the size of the dynamic candidate list for search (40 by default)
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
SET hnsw.ef_search = 100;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
A higher value provides better recall at the cost of speed.
|
||||
|
||||
Use `SET LOCAL` inside a transaction to set it for a single query
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
BEGIN;
|
||||
SET LOCAL hnsw.ef_search = 100;
