oftentimes we struggle to explain the results combine from the ANN index. To improve the developer experience, what if Lance's nearest neighbor API supported an option to return debug information about how the result was achieved?
e.g., if you call
dataset.to_table(..., nearest={..., debug=True})
, then you'll get additional columns back in the results like:With this information, combined with the index information itself from #617 we can make it very easy to understand and debug where results come from.
