Implement Sparse Vectors #538

Closed philippemnoel closed 2 days ago

philippemnoel commented 7 months ago

Hi there!

This is a bit dated (a few months), but I figured I'd PR anyway in case it's valuable to the community. Back in October 2023, we forked this repository to add support for sparse vectors as a precursor to what became https://github.com/paradedb/paradedb.

We've had the repo archived since then, and who knows perhaps this is of use to the community, so opening up here!
