Khám phá sức mạnh của tìm kiếm ngữ nghĩa! Tìm hiểu cách AI, NLP và ML nâng cao độ chính xác của tìm kiếm bằng cách hiểu ý định và ngữ cảnh của người dùng.
Semantic search represents a significant advancement in information retrieval, moving beyond simple keyword matching to understand the intent and contextual meaning behind user queries. Instead of merely looking for literal word occurrences, semantic search utilizes Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, particularly from Natural Language Processing (NLP), to grasp the nuances of language, relationships between words, and the user's underlying goal. This allows search systems to deliver more relevant and accurate results by interpreting what the user means to find, rather than just the specific terms they typed. It's a core component in making interactions with information systems, from web search to internal knowledge bases, more natural and intuitive, fundamentally improving information retrieval effectiveness.
At its heart, semantic search leverages concepts from NLP and Machine Learning (ML) to decipher the meaning embedded in text or other data types. The process often involves converting data (like words, sentences, documents, or even images) into numerical representations called embeddings. These embeddings, typically high-dimensional vectors, capture the semantic essence of the data. Items with similar meanings, concepts, or contexts are positioned closer together in this vector space.
When a user performs a search, their query (which can be natural language text, an image, etc.) is also converted into an embedding using the same ML model. The system then employs vector search techniques, often powered by specialized vector databases like Pinecone or Milvus, to efficiently find items in its index whose embeddings are closest (most similar) to the query embedding. This similarity is usually measured using distance metrics like cosine similarity or Euclidean distance. Advanced deep learning (DL) models, including architectures like transformers (e.g., BERT), are frequently used to generate these powerful, context-aware embeddings. Major search engines like Google Search have incorporated semantic understanding for years to improve result quality beyond simple keyword frequency.
