What is BASED about?
Search is evolving fast. From new algorithms and tools to AI-driven solutions, the field is constantly shifting. BASED Meetup is where professionals & enthusiasts discuss the latest trends, breakthroughs and challenges in modern search.
We dive into topics like:
- Agentic Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG);
- Innovative approaches to sparse, dense, and hybrid retrieval;
- Advances in indexing algorithms and vector quantization;
- Modern metrics for search quality;
- Optimization techniques for production-scale systems;
- Cross-lingual and multimodal search challenges;
- The intersection of search and generative AI;
… and much more.
No sales pitches, no gatekeeping — just an open space to share ideas, learn from each other, and explore the technologies shaping the future of search.
Whether you're building production systems, researching search algorithms, or just curious about the field, you're welcome here.
