### What are the default `rescore` values for different quantization methods?
Only binary quantization uses rescoring by default. All other quantization methods do not rescore by default. The default behavior can be overridden with the query-time `rescore` parameter.
By default, rescoring is only enabled for four quantization methods: binary quantization, TurboQuant 1 Bit, TurboQuant 1.5 Bit, and TurboQuant 2 Bit. Other quantization methods do not rescore by default. The default behavior can be overridden with the query-time `rescore` parameter.

`ignore` - Toggle whether to ignore quantized vectors during the search process. By default, Qdrant will use quantized vectors if they are available.
`rescore` - Qdrant can re-evaluate top-k search results using the original vectors. While this can improve search quality, it may decrease search speed, especially if the original vectors are stored on disk. In such cases, it is recommended to disable rescoring.
