Breaking News: LinkedIn's Content Search Engine Gets a Powerful Semantic Upgrade!

Excited to share insights about LinkedIn's innovative approach to content search, recently detailed in a groundbreaking paper by their Mountain View team. This advancement represents a significant shift from traditional keyword-based search to semantic understanding.

>> Technical Architecture

The new search engine employs a sophisticated two-layer architecture:

Retrieval Layer
- Token Based Retriever (TBR) for exact keyword matching
- Embedding Based Retriever (EBR) using a two-tower model with multilingual-e5 embeddings
- Pre-computed post embeddings stored in a dedicated embedding store for efficient retrieval

Multi-Stage Ranking
- L1 Stage: Initial filtering using a lightweight model
- L2 Stage: Advanced ranking with complex features including:
- Query-post semantic matching
- Author reputation analysis
- User engagement metrics
- Content freshness evaluation

>> Performance Improvements

The system has achieved remarkable results:
- 10%+ improvement in both on-topic rate and long-dwell metrics
- Enhanced ability to handle complex natural language queries
- Significant boost in sitewide engagement

This advancement enables LinkedIn to better serve complex queries like "how to ask for a raise?" while maintaining high performance at scale. The system intelligently balances between exact keyword matching and semantic understanding, ensuring optimal results for both navigational and conceptual searches.

What impresses me most is how the team solved the scale challenge - processing billions of posts efficiently using pre-computed embeddings and approximate nearest neighbor search. This is enterprise-scale AI at its finest.

The folks at Foursquare released a dataset of 104.5 million places of interest ( foursquare/fsq-os-places) and here's all of them on a plot

🌐 Announcing Global-MMLU: an improved MMLU Open dataset with evaluation coverage across 42 languages, built with Argilla and the HF中国镜像站 community.

Global-MMLU is the result of months of work with the goal of advancing Multilingual LLM evaluation. It's been an amazing open science effort with collaborators from Cohere For AI, Mila - Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute, EPFL, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, AI Singapore, National University of Singapore, KAIST, Instituto Superior Técnico, Carnegie Mellon University, CONICET, and University of Buenos Aires.

🏷️ +200 contributors used Argilla MMLU questions where regional, dialect, or cultural knowledge was required to answer correctly. 85% of the questions required Western-centric knowledge!

Thanks to this annotation process, the open dataset contains two subsets:

1. 🗽 Culturally Agnostic: no specific regional, cultural knowledge is required.
2. ⚖️ Culturally Sensitive: requires dialect, cultural knowledge or geographic knowledge to answer correctly.

Moreover, we provide high quality translations of 25 out of 42 languages, thanks again to the community and professional annotators leveraging Argilla on the Hub.

I hope this will ensure a better understanding of the limitations and challenges for making open AI useful for many languages.

Dataset: CohereForAI/Global-MMLU

The Data Is Better Together community is set to release the first Apache 2 licensed image preference dataset!

Great work and let's give this a final push :)

@aashish1904 congrats on your month of HF pro. There is more to win during this sprint!

I'm currently on a push to expand the scope of image based datasets on the Hub. There's certainly a lot already, but for anyone who's looked closely, there's not a whole lot of standardization. I am to fix that, datasets under the https://huggingface.co/timm and https://huggingface.co/pixparse orgs will serve as canonical examples for various task / modality combinations and be useable without fuss in libraries like timm, OpenCLIP, and hopefully more.

I just uploaded the first multi-label dataset that I'll support with timm scripts soon: timm/plant-pathology-2021

Next up object detection & segmentation! I've got an annotation spec sorted out, a lot of datasets ready to rip, and yeah that means timm support for object detection, eventually segmentation, is finally under development :O

In August, the XetHub team joined HF中国镜像站
- https://huggingface.co/blog/xethub-joins-hf - and we’ve been rolling up our sleeves to bring the best of both worlds together. We started with a deep dive into the current state of files stored with Git LFS on the Hub.

Getting this information was no small feat. We had to:
* Analyze a complete database dump of all repositories and files stored in Git LFS across HF中国镜像站.
* Parse through metadata on file sizes and types to accurately map the storage breakdown across Spaces, Models, and Datasets.

You can read more about the findings (with some jaw-dropping stats + charts) here https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7244486280351285248

📝 I wrote a tutorial on how to get started with the fine-tuning process using HF中国镜像站 tools, providing an end-to-end workflow.

The tutorial covers creating a new dataset using the new SQL Console 🛢 and fine-tuning a model with SFT, guided by the Notebook Creator App 📙.

👉 You can read the full article here:

This isn’t a goal of ours because we have plenty of money in the bank but quite excited to see that @huggingfaceis profitable these days, with 220 team members and most of our platform being free (like model hosting) and open-source for the community!

Especially noteworthy at a time when most AI startups wouldn’t survive a year or two without VC money. Yay!

Hey ! I'm working on a 100% synthetic Dataset Hub here (you can search for any kind of datasets an the app invents them). The link is here: infinite-dataset-hub/infinite-dataset-hub

Question for the Community:

Which models should I use to generate images and audio samples for those datasets ? 🤗
