Constants
DISTANCE_MEASURE_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED
Value: 0
Should not be set.
Generated from protobuf enum DISTANCE_MEASURE_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED = 0;
SQUARED_L2_DISTANCE
Value: 1
Euclidean (L_2) Distance.
Generated from protobuf enum SQUARED_L2_DISTANCE = 1;
COSINE_DISTANCE
Value: 2
Cosine Distance. Defined as 1 - cosine similarity.
We strongly suggest using DOT_PRODUCT_DISTANCE + UNIT_L2_NORM instead of COSINE distance. Our algorithms have been more optimized for DOT_PRODUCT distance which, when combined with UNIT_L2_NORM, is mathematically equivalent to COSINE distance and results in the same ranking.
Generated from protobuf enum COSINE_DISTANCE = 2;
DOT_PRODUCT_DISTANCE
Value: 3
Dot Product Distance. Defined as a negative of the dot product.
Generated from protobuf enum DOT_PRODUCT_DISTANCE = 3;
