Day 15: Mastering Embedding Stores & Vector Databases in LLM Apps with Anton Troynikov

Welcome to Day 15 of the Weights & Biases 30 Days of LLMs. We're continuing with our complimentary "Building LLM-Powered Apps" course. In this segment, Chroma's co-founder Anton Troynikov imparts his knowledge on embedding stores and vector databases, integral elements for crafting advanced LLM applications.

Chapter Highlights

  • Getting to Know Embedding Stores: Uncover the functionality of embedding stores and their role in enhancing operations like nearest neighbor search in LLM projects.
  • Applicability of Embedding Stores: Understand the situations where embedding stores are particularly beneficial, notably in managing extensive datasets.
  • The Function of Vector Databases: Delve into how vector databases efficiently process large datasets with approximate nearest neighbor algorithms.
  • Enhancing Searches with Advanced Algorithms: Learn about the different algorithms employed in embedding stores, such as inverted file indexes, locality-sensitive hashing, and hierarchical navigable Small World graphs.
  • Practical Implementation Tips: Acquire hands-on insights into the application of these technologies in LLM projects, informed by Chroma's co-founder.

Key Course Information

  • No deep machine learning knowledge is needed, just some familiarity with Python programming.
  • Strategies for continual enhancement of your LLM applications.
  • Unique perspectives on the LLM tools used by Weights & Biases.
