Ideas in this flowchart
- Embedding connects information with semantic meaning.
- An embedding represents semantic meaning.
- The source is a piece of information.
- The information is converted into an embedding.
- The embedding is represented as a numerical vector.
- The vector provides a numerical representation of meaning.
- Software receives vectors for comparison.
- Software compares the vectors.
- The comparison estimates semantic closeness.
- Closer vectors indicate closer meaning.
- Different words can describe similar ideas.
- Different wording does not prevent semantic comparison.
- The vector comparison identifies similar meanings.
- Related knowledge can be discovered.
- The system produces connections between related information.
