# EmbeddingBuddy
|
|
|
|
A web application for interactive exploration and visualization of embedding
|
|
vectors through dimensionality reduction techniques. Compare documents and prompts
|
|
in the same embedding space to understand semantic relationships.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
EmbeddingBuddy provides an intuitive web interface for analyzing high-dimensional
|
|
embedding vectors by applying various dimensionality reduction algorithms and
|
|
visualizing the results in interactive 2D and 3D plots. The application supports
|
|
dual dataset visualization, allowing you to compare documents and prompts to
|
|
understand how queries relate to your content.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Dual file upload** - separate drag-and-drop for documents and prompts
|
|
- **Multiple dimensionality reduction methods**: PCA, t-SNE, and UMAP
|
|
- **Interactive 2D/3D visualizations** with toggle between views
|
|
- **Color coding options** by category, subcategory, or tags
|
|
- **Visual distinction**: Documents appear as circles, prompts as diamonds with desaturated colors
|
|
- **Prompt visibility toggle** - show/hide prompts to reduce visual clutter
|
|
- **Point inspection** - click points to view full content and identify document vs prompt
|
|
- **Reset functionality** - clear all data to start fresh
|
|
- **Sidebar layout** with controls on left, large visualization area on right
|
|
- **Real-time visualization** optimized for small to medium datasets
|
|
|
|
## Data Format
|
|
|
|
EmbeddingBuddy accepts newline-delimited JSON (NDJSON) files for both documents
|
|
and prompts. Each line contains an embedding with the following structure:
|
|
|
|
**Documents:**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{"id": "doc_001", "embedding": [0.1, -0.3, 0.7, ...], "text": "Sample text content", "category": "news", "subcategory": "politics", "tags": ["election", "politics"]}
|
|
{"id": "doc_002", "embedding": [0.2, -0.1, 0.9, ...], "text": "Another example", "category": "review", "subcategory": "product", "tags": ["tech", "gadget"]}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Prompts:**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{"id": "prompt_001", "embedding": [0.15, -0.28, 0.65, ...], "text": "Find articles about machine learning applications", "category": "search", "subcategory": "technology", "tags": ["AI", "research"]}
|
|
{"id": "prompt_002", "embedding": [0.72, 0.18, -0.35, ...], "text": "Show me product reviews for smartphones", "category": "search", "subcategory": "product", "tags": ["mobile", "reviews"]}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Required Fields:**
|
|
|
|
- `embedding`: Array of floating-point numbers representing the vector (must be same dimensionality for both documents and prompts)
|
|
- `text`: String content associated with the embedding
|
|
|
|
**Optional Fields:**
|
|
|
|
- `id`: Unique identifier (auto-generated if missing)
|
|
- `category`: Primary classification
|
|
- `subcategory`: Secondary classification
|
|
- `tags`: Array of string tags for flexible labeling
|
|
|
|
**Important:** Document and prompt embeddings must have the same number of dimensions to be visualized together.

## Installation & Usage
|
|
|
|
This project uses [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) for dependency management.
|
|
|
|
1. **Install dependencies:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
uv sync
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **Run the application:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
uv run python app.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **Open your browser** to http://127.0.0.1:8050
|
|
|
|
4. **Test with sample data**:
|
|
- Upload `sample_data.ndjson` (documents)
|
|
- Upload `sample_prompts.ndjson` (prompts) to see dual visualization
|
|
- Use the "Show prompts" toggle to compare how prompts relate to documents
|
|
