Overview

Initial project setup and implementation of core functionality for semantic similarity search using Jina AI's APIs.

Key Activities

  1. Created the core JinaSimilarity class in jina_similarity.py with the following features:

    • Token counting using tiktoken
    • Embedding generation using Jina AI's Embeddings API
    • Similarity computation using cosine similarity
    • Error handling for token limit violations

  2. Implemented the markdown segmenter in markdown_segmenter.py:

    • Segmentation of markdown documents using Jina AI's Segmenter API
    • Command-line interface for easy usage

  3. Developed a test script (test_similarity.py) with:

    • Command-line argument parsing
    • File reading functionality
    • Verbose output option for debugging
    • Error handling

  4. Created sample files for testing:

    • sample_chunk.txt: Contains a paragraph about pangrams
    • sample_query.txt: Contains a question about pangrams

Insights

  • Jina AI's embedding model (jina-embeddings-v3) provides high-quality embeddings for semantic search
  • The token limit of 8,192 tokens is sufficient for most use cases, but longer documents need segmentation
