Hi @Sandy4321 -- Voyager is built off of the HNSW algorithm. Thank you for highlighting that we don't actually link to this paper in the documentation. I'll go ahead and add that :)

The authors of that paper have not been involved in the development of the Voyager library, but they were authors of nmslib and hnswlib which this library was derived from
