> Can we do that for Lucene 10.0 ? Deprecate it and warning of its imminent demise or remove it? Either should be possible. For users, they would have to add code to normalize vectors and store the magnitude for vector reconstitution (if they are using cosine). This could be seen as a heavy lift, but I honestly don't know. I am fine with either option, though I think we would deprecating it as existing indices that use the cosine similarity would still have to be read and searchable (and those vectors won't necessarily be normalized). Lucene 10 would need to read Lucene 9 indices correct? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
