🏷️ Labels: Chromadb, Data Integrity, Embedding, Semantic Retrieval, Pipeline, Automation
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The session aimed to address data integrity issues in ChromaDB, diagnose and recover from data corruption, and enhance the embedding pipeline for semantic retrieval.

Key Activities

  • Handling Corrupted Entries: Developed a method to safely scan ChromaDB collections, skipping corrupted entries to maintain data integrity.
  • Diagnosis and Recovery: Diagnosed ChromaDB corruption, identified valid documents, and outlined steps for exporting and rebuilding collections.
  • Re-embedding for Semantic Retrieval: Provided guidance on re-embedding entries in ChromaDB to ensure effective semantic retrieval.
  • Notebook Pipeline Overview: Reviewed the structure of a notebook pipeline for data ingestion, analysis, and clustering.
  • Embedding Pipeline Progress: Updated on the successful implementation of the embedding pipeline, highlighting its current status and recommendations.
  • Working Memory System Enhancements: Suggested improvements for a working memory system to enhance semantic matching and retrieval.
  • Semantic Search Insights: Analyzed ChromaDB semantic search results to improve retrieval quality and metadata handling.

Achievements

  • Successfully implemented error handling and recovery steps for ChromaDB.
  • Enhanced the embedding pipeline for better semantic retrieval.

Pending Tasks

  • Further refine the working memory system based on insights from semantic search.
  • Continue monitoring telemetry events for the embedding pipeline.
