ElasticON Global Customer Session: Xmartlabs


Session Title: Use search effectively in taxonomies & model your domain in Elasticsearch

Finding matches when using a taxonomy is a common problem. A notable challenge is mapping a user’s query to the entity (or results) expected when searching for an entity inside a catalog mapping. Functional textual search models tend to rely on exact match or partial match, but both can lead to a frustrating experience when users aren’t familiar with the domain. Basic models often fail to support user typos, synonyms, acronyms, and/or hyponyms/hypernyms. Renzo Gambone, from Xmartlabs shares how to tackle these challenges and make search more intuitive when using a taxonomy. This talk covers:
– A case study on how a fashion catalog may be modeled as a taxonomy
– What to account for when modeling a static taxonomy
– How word embeddings can be used as failback – Code examples, including the Elastic index and querying it
