Deep Lake

Deep Lake is a multimodal database for building AI applications Deep Lake is a database for AI. Store Vectors, Images, Texts, Videos, etc. Use with LLMs/LangChain. Store, query, version, & visualize any AI data. Stream data in real time to PyTorch/TensorFlow.

In the notebook, we’ll demo the SelfQueryRetriever wrapped around a Deep Lake vector store.

Creating a Deep Lake vector store

First we’ll want to create a Deep Lake vector store and seed it with some data. We’ve created a small demo set of documents that contain summaries of movies.

Note: The self-query retriever requires you to have lark installed (pip install lark). We also need the deeplake package.

# !pip install lark
# in case if some queries fail consider installing libdeeplake manually
# !pip install libdeeplake

We want to use OpenAIEmbeddings so we have to get the OpenAI API Key.

import getpass
import os

os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = getpass.getpass("OpenAI API Key:")
os.environ["ACTIVELOOP_TOKEN"] = getpass.getpass("Activeloop token:")
from langchain.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain.schema import Document
from langchain.vectorstores import DeepLake

embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
docs = [

Creating our self-querying retriever

Now we can instantiate our retriever. To do this we’ll need to provide some information upfront about the metadata fields that our documents support and a short description of the document contents.

from langchain.chains.query_constructor.base import AttributeInfo
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.retrievers.self_query.base import SelfQueryRetriever

metadata_field_info = [
AttributeInfo(
name="genre",
description="The genre of the movie",
type="string or list[string]",
),
AttributeInfo(
name="year",
description="The year the movie was released",
type="integer",
),
AttributeInfo(
name="director",
description="The name of the movie director",
type="string",
),
AttributeInfo(
name="rating", description="A 1-10 rating for the movie", type="float"
),
]
document_content_description = "Brief summary of a movie"
llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
retriever = SelfQueryRetriever.from_llm(
llm, vectorstore, document_content_description, metadata_field_info, verbose=True
)

Testing it out

And now we can try actually using our retriever!

# This example only specifies a relevant query
retriever.get_relevant_documents("What are some movies about dinosaurs")

Filter k

We can also use the self query retriever to specify k: the number of documents to fetch.

We can do this by passing enable_limit=True to the constructor.

retriever = SelfQueryRetriever.from_llm(
llm,
vectorstore,
document_content_description,
metadata_field_info,
enable_limit=True,
verbose=True,
)
# This example only specifies a relevant query
retriever.get_relevant_documents("what are two movies about dinosaurs")
query='dinosaur' filter=None limit=2
[Document(page_content='A bunch of scientists bring back dinosaurs and mayhem breaks loose', metadata={'year': 1993, 'rating': 7.7, 'genre': 'science fiction'}),
Document(page_content='Toys come alive and have a blast doing so', metadata={'year': 1995, 'genre': 'animated'})]
