Text-to-Struct: Fine-tuning SLMs for Query Intent
Talk
Hybrid search fails on complex intent: vector search misses constraints, keywords miss nuance. This talk explores fine-tuning SLMs for 'Query Understanding'—transforming vague inputs into structured requests. Learn to extract metadata, expand terms, and route intent to build a search engine that does the hard work for your users.
