sqlite-sparse: Run a Sparse Retrieval Model Inside SQLite
sqlite-sparse allows running a learned sparse retrieval model in SQLite without model downloads.
sqlite-sparse enables a learned sparse encoder to operate within SQLite without requiring a model at query time. This approach significantly reduces query latency by 99% and cold start times by 99%, while only sacrificing about 7% of retrieval quality. Users can also integrate their own inference-free OpenSearch-style sparse encoders using the provided scripts.
