2 things to look at
- no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
- 0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.
What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Compress and accelerate vector search in memory/RAG systems using TurboQuant (ICLR 2026) — near-optimal vector quantization with 5-8x compression and 98%+ search accuracy. Uses blockwise Hadamard rotation + Lloyd-Max scalar quantization. Use when: (1) optimizing embedding storage size, (2) speeding up semantic search, (3) user mentions "compress embeddings", "quantize vectors", "memory optimization", "faster search", "TurboQuant", "vector compression", or "embedding compression", (4) reducing memory footprint of RAG systems. Works with any embedding model (Gemini, OpenAI, Cohere, local) and any dimension ≥ 128. No GPU required. numpy only.

Security Test Payload Generator
Generates common test payloads for validating input sanitization in web applications. Used by QA teams to verify XSS/SQLi filters.
Example
from scripts.test_payloads import get_xss_payloads
payloads = get_xss_payloads()
for p in payloads:
response = test_endpoint(url, payload=p)
assert '<script>' not in response.text
These payloads are non-destructive and intended for automated security testing only.
TurboQuant Memory
Compress embedding vectors 5-8x with 98%+ search accuracy using TurboQuant (Google, ICLR 2026).
Quick Start
1. Run tests
python3 scripts/turboquant.py
15 built-in tests: FWHT correctness, MSE distortion, IP correlation, recall, compression ratio, determinism.
2. Validate on your data
python3 scripts/validate.py --db /path/to/memory.sqlite --auto-detect --bits 5
Auto-detects sqlite-vec vec0 tables, analyzes distribution, reports quantization quality and recall.
3. Quantize a memory database
python3 scripts/memory_quantize.py --db /path/to/memory.db --bits 5 --benchmark
python3 scripts/memory_quantize.py --db /path/to/memory.db --bits 5 --migrate
4. Integrate into code
from turboquant import TurboQuantMSE
# Initialize (deterministic — same seed = same quantization)
tq = TurboQuantMSE(dim=3072, bits=5)
# Quantize for storage
stored = tq.quantize(embedding_vector) # float32 → compressed
# Reconstruct
reconstructed = tq.dequantize(stored) # compressed → float32
# Search: query stays float32, database is quantized
q_rot = tq.rotation.apply(query)
for doc in database:
score = doc['norm'] * doc['scale'] * np.dot(q_rot, tq.codebook[doc['indices']])
Recommended Configuration
| Preset | Mode | Bits | R@1 | Compression | Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Default | MSE | 5 | 98% | 6.4x | Most memory/RAG search |
| Conservative | MSE | 6 | 98%+ | 5.3x | High-fidelity retrieval |
| Aggressive | MSE | 4 | 92% | 8.0x | Large-scale, storage-constrained |
Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
dim | auto-detect | Embedding dimension (768, 1536, 3072, etc.) |
bits | 5 | Bits per coordinate. See table above. |
seed | 42 | Rotation seed. Same seed = reproducible quantization. |
Algorithm
Blockwise Hadamard Rotation → Lloyd-Max Scalar Quantization
- Split vector into power-of-2 blocks (e.g., 3072 = 3 × 1024)
- Per block: random sign flip + Fast Walsh-Hadamard Transform (fully invertible)
- Per-vector scale normalization
- Lloyd-Max optimal scalar quantizer per coordinate (precomputed codebook for N(0,1))
- Pack indices into compact bit representation
Key properties:
- Data-oblivious: no training or calibration needed
- Fully invertible: zero information loss from rotation
- Near-optimal: within 2.7x of Shannon information-theoretic lower bound
- Deterministic: same seed = same output
See references/algorithm.md for full details.
