Samenvatting:

AI-Powered Search teaches you the latest machine-learning techniques. Ideal for software developers or data scientists familiar with the basics of search engine development, it will show you ways to create content that will constantly get smarter and automatically deliver better, more relevant search experiences

Great search is all about delivering the right results. Today's search engines are expected to be smart and understand the nuances of natural language queries, as well as each user's preferences and context.

AI-Powered Search is an authoritative guide to applying leading-edge data science techniques to search. It teaches you how to build search engines that automatically understand the intention of a query in order to deliver significantly better results.

Author Trey Grainger is an expert on leading techniques for crowdsourced relevancy and semantic search and has helped develop numerous algorithms which have transformed search. Working through code in interactive notebooks, you will deploy intelligent search systems that deliver real-time personalisation and contextual understanding of each user, domain, and query through a self-learning search platform that can tune its own results automatically.

About the reader

For software developers or data scientists familiar with the basics of search engine development.

AI-Powered Search teaches you the latest machine-learning techniques to create search engines that continuously learn from your users and your content. Written by Trey Grainger, the Chief Algorithms Officer at Lucidworks, this authoritative book empowers you to create and deploy search engines that take advantage of user interactions and hidden semantic relationships.

This book is ideal for software developers or data scientists familiar with the basics of search engine development. It will show you ways to create content that will constantly get smarter and automatically deliver better, more relevant search experiences.

What's inside

• Reflected intelligence to continually learn and improve search relevancy
• Natural language search with automatically-learned knowledge graphs
• Semantic search, with domain-specific terms, phrases, concepts, and relationships
• Personalised search, utilising user behavioural signals and learned user profiles
• Automated Learning to Rank (machine-learned ranking) from user signals
• Word embeddings, vector search, question answering, image and voice search, and other modern search paradigms

The search box has become the "de facto" user interface for modern data-driven applications. Users expect the software to fully understand their search inputs, context, and activity and return the right answers, every time. Fortunately, you no longer need a massive team manually adjusting relevancy parameters to deliver optimal search results. Using the power of AI, you can develop search solutions that dynamically learn from your content and users, constantly getting smarter and delivering better answers.
