FAQ Solution
The Supervised solution consists of two parts.
1. Train a model
Train a deep learning model using existing query/response pairs by configuring the Smart Answers Supervised Training job. See Train A Smart Answers Supervised Model.
The job includes an auto-tuning feature that seeks to identify the optimal configuration for your RNN-based model. Transformer-based models like BERT are not used in the auto-tuning.
2. Create collections in Milvus
In order to use {app_name}-smart-answers pipelines, you need to create collections in Milvus. Please, refer to the Milvus documentation page.
3. Configure the pipelines
The trained model should be used at both index and query time in order to perform dense vector search.
-
At index time, we provide the
{app_name}-smart-answersindex pipeline to help generate a dense vector representation of answers. -
At query time, we provide a
{app_name}-smart-answersquery pipeline to conduct run-time neural search. This pipeline transforms the incoming query into a dense vector using the trained model, then compares it with indexed answer dense vectors by computing the cosine distance between them. You can also use a query stage to combine Solr and document vector similarity scores at query time.
See Configure The Smart Answers Pipelines. Once your pipelines are configured, see Evaluate a Smart Answers Query Pipeline to test its effectiveness so that you can fine-tune the configuration.
