Re: Semantic Search adds support for multiple languages
Hello 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.2.1KViews1like0CommentsRe: When to use and how to get querying proficiency
Hello Pedro - thank you for your question. Regarding your 2nd question, you could use the "orderby" parameter to include your custom ordering functions. Please refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/search/search-query-odata-orderby and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/searchservice/Search-Documents for more details. If you have issues using the .Net SDK, Did you mean 'semantic search' when you said 'semantic scoring'? If not, can you please elaborate on that.5KViews1like3CommentsSemantic 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.

aowens-jmt: Semantic search does not use LUIS behind the scenes. You can learn more about the capability from the announcement here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-ai/introducing-semantic-search-bringing-more-meaningful-results-to/ba-p/2175636 You can refer to this article to learn how to create a semantic query.

Carlos_Acosta Azure Cognitive Search is a cloud search service that gives developers APIs and tools for building a rich search experience over private, heterogeneous content in web, mobile, and enterprise applications. Azure Cognitive Search simplifies a lot of complexity if you are creating an application that needs a rich search experience (think "search box" and "search results"). All that goes into creating a great search experience is available over simple REST API's: ranking that is relevant, auto-complete, suggestions, geo-spatial queries, filters, facets, etc. We now even support new capabilities like semantic search that use the latest in AI to provide you semantic ranking and answers (this is in preview right now).
