Keyword search fails when people don\u2019t use the same exact words that are present in your data. Intro to Embeddings<\/strong><\/span><\/a> and semantic search solve this problem by converting text (and other data) into vectors so “conceptually related” pieces of content can be retrieved even if the words are different.<\/p>\n

\"Intro<\/p>\n

What are embeddings?<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Embeddings are numerical vector representations of data typically text, but also images, items, or users such that the ones with similar features are nearest neighbors in the high, dimensional space.<\/li>\n
  2. Consider a text embedding model mapping: customer left because of bad support user churned after a poor service experience to nearby vectors because they convey similar meaning although the words differ.<\/li>\n
  3. Such vectors make it possible to perform mathematical operations such as similarity search (cosine similarity, dot product) for discovering related materials. What is semantic search?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Semantic search leverages embeddings to fetch results based on meaning instead of exact keyword matches:<\/strong><\/p>\n
