MicrosoftSemantic Search adds support for multiple languages
Hello everyone,
We recently announced support for over 30 languages in semantic search. You can refer to our blog https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-ai/introducing-multilingual-support-for-semantic-search-on-azure/ba-p/2385110 which details our approach and how you can get started.
If you have not tried semantic search, you can request access to it by submitting this form: https://aka.ms/semanticpreview .
Happy to answer any questions you might have.
Best,
Puneet
- Since the formation of new German orthography in 1996, this has often been reformed. This type of language is individual in the literal sense and figurative sense. Does an AI machine then also become logical/confused and shows a picture to the word?
- PuneetHariharanHello cap2nd - thank you for your question. To clarify, Azure Cognitive Search enables you to build a rich search experience in your application that surfaces content to users, with common scenarios including catalog or document search, e-commerce site search, or knowledge mining for data science.
Semantic search is a capability within Azure Cognitive Search that provides a step function improvement in document relevance based on semantic similarity. To do that well, we require customers to specify the 'queryLanguage' parameter to make best use of the language models for better relevance.
To your question, if you would like to search for an image, we recommend enriching it (maybe OCR) as part of ingestion to extract relevant content in the language your desire for search use-cases. Let me know if you have any further questions.
