Comment on Honey, I shrunk the embeddings: Matryoshka vs. PCA

Comments

PCA is good, but you could also try playing around with Sparse (robust) PCA. The sparsification loses orthogonality, but does not necessarily lose information, it can yield a different rotation and cleaner vectors. Now whether that matters in the context of LLMs/Embeddings - I cannot tell.
