⚙️Semantic search uses the meaning of the query rather than just word matching for accurate results.
🔍Text embeddings assign numerical values to words, grouping similar words together.
🤖Nearest neighbor search is used to find similar sentences based on embeddings.
📝Re-ranking models help identify correct answers among similar sentences.
🔀Positive and negative pairs help optimize embeddings for better search results.
How does semantic search differ from lexical search?
—Semantic search focuses on meaning, while lexical search relies on word matching.
What is the purpose of text embeddings?
—Text embeddings convert words into numerical values to measure similarity and group similar words.
How does re-ranking improve search accuracy?
—Re-ranking models prioritize correct answers based on a trained scoring system.
What is the significance of positive and negative pairs in search optimization?
—Positive pairs optimize embeddings for correct answers, while negative pairs help differentiate between correct and incorrect responses.
What techniques help enhance semantic search algorithms?
—Techniques like re-ranking, positive and negative pairs, and model training improve the accuracy and efficiency of semantic search.
