incubator-fury VS towhee

For implemetation details, https://github.com/apache/incubator-fury/blob/main/java/fury... can be taken as an example

See https://github.com/alipay/fury/blob/main/docs/guide/scala_gu... for scala serialization user doc

Yes, Game is another scenario, it's very latency sensitive. Fury is very fast for such scenarios. Actually the java implememtation has been featured by some game developers. And there has always been a demand within the community for FURY to support C#: https://github.com/alipay/fury/issues/686 . I don't have experience for c#, so c# hasn't been support. We are still the community can join us for c# support.

As another commenter noted, Milvus is overkill and a "bit much" if you're learning/playing.

A good intro to the field with progression towards a full Milvus implementation could be starting with towhee[0] (which is also supported by Milvus).

towhee has an example to do exactly what you want with CLIP[1].

The description of this is kind of confusing but I think the easiest way to understand it is that it is a data processing pipeline of sorts. Take unstructured data and apply transformation and computation. A similar project to this is Towhee (https://github.com/towhee-io/towhee). This project tries to simplify unstructured data processing and provides pretrained models and pipelines from their hub.

Milvus also has incredible flexibility when it comes to choosing an indexing strategy, and we also have a library specifically meant to help vectorize a variety of data called Towhee (https://github.com/towhee-io/towhee).

Benchmarking the models with towhee is as simple as:

The project's homepage is https://github.com/towhee-io/towhee, and you can find more about towhee by going through the documents.

I made a tutorial for building an image search engine with python. The code example is as simple as 10 lines of code, using Towhee and Milvus To put images into the search engine:

Traditionally, I've done this through PyTorch by adding a hook, but this requires knowledge of the model itself (i.e. model arch and layer names). I found https://github.com/Hironsan/awesome-embedding-models but it didn't provide many CV-focused open-source projects. There's also https://github.com/towhee-io/towhee which is great but more targeted towards application development.

You can check the result from the tutorial.
