Researchers have developed MV-IVF, a new inverted-file index designed for multi-vector retrieval. This system utilizes a novel clustering algorithm, MV-Lloyd, to efficiently index sets of embeddings, which represent queries and documents. MV-IVF aims to improve retrieval quality and speed by directly indexing multi-vector data, unlike previous methods that relied on proxy representations or filter-and-rerank pipelines. The system demonstrates significant improvements in latency and throughput on text retrieval benchmarks. AI
