Milvus tests hyperbolic embeddings in image search rankings
The geometry matters less than the query type: hyperbolic scoring helps descriptive captions but hurts broad category queries where rare taxonomy terms dominate the gap. Teams running image search should benchmark Lorentz against cosine on their own query logs instead of assuming hyperbolic is uniformly better. Milvus supports hyperbolic ranking through a standard inner product, so no new infrastructure is required to test it.
