Comparison between the general-purpose edition and the Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming
Introduction to the Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming
Built on the latest algorithm features, the Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming addresses the pain points and requirements of gaming search scenarios. It provides intelligent semantic understanding, vector-based retrieval, and ranking algorithms dedicated to the gaming industry, ensuring both search performance and result accuracy. It effectively solves key industry challenges, such as high search latency caused by extremely large dictionaries and high no-result rates caused by heavy resource consumption, and provides a multimodal search solution. For the gaming industry, OpenSearch also provides vector models to implement vector-based retrieval and multi-channel search, which improves query accuracy.
Feature differences
Feature | General-purpose edition | Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming |
One-stop configuration | After you create an application, you must manually create and configure query analysis, sort policies, and drop-down suggestion models. | Based on common search scenarios in the gaming industry, you can select the capabilities and features that you need. Application schema templates and index schema templates are also provided to enable one-click configuration, which lowers the barrier to entry for new users. |
Query analysis | Provides capabilities for general industries, such as synonym expansion, stop word removal, spelling correction, term weight analysis, and category prediction. | Provides enhanced analyzers and query analysis features for the general gaming industry. Based on gaming search scenarios and industry challenges, it builds indexes more precisely and identifies user query intent more accurately, delivering better results than the general-purpose edition. |
Policy-based sorting | After you create an application, you must manually configure and debug sort policies based on your business scenarios. | Based on the application schema templates and index schema templates, provides common basic sort expressions and business sort expressions for the gaming industry. These meet most sorting requirements in the gaming industry without additional configuration. |
Feature iteration | Periodically updates the default system dictionaries for analyzers, query analysis, and other features. | Continuously iterates and updates based on changes in gaming industry terms, products, and more. It optimizes existing tokenization and query analysis capabilities to provide more timely service. |
Comparison of query analysis results
Compared with the general-purpose edition, the industry-enhanced edition provides deeper optimizations for query analysis. It not only fixes common bad cases of the general-purpose edition, but also enriches the existing dictionaries by drawing on the strengths of various sources in the gaming industry. The following examples are provided for each feature. Because these examples demonstrate Chinese tokenization, the Chinese characters are represented as Unicode escape sequences (\uXXXX), and an English gloss is provided for each query. To test these examples, decode the escape sequences into the actual Chinese characters before you enter them.
Tokenization (tokens are separated by spaces):
query | General-purpose edition | Industry-enhanced edition |
\u539f\u795e\u5723\u9057\u7269 (Genshin Impact artifacts) | \u539f \u795e\u5723 \u9057\u7269 | \u539f\u795e \u5723\u9057\u7269 |
\u63f4\u62a4\u653b\u51fb\u8868 (support attack table) | \u63f4 \u62a4 \u653b\u51fb \u8868 | \u63f4\u62a4 \u653b\u51fb \u8868 |
\u9a91\u4e58\u5b9e\u4f53 (ridden entity) | \u9a91 \u4e58 \u5b9e\u4f53 | \u9a91\u4e58 \u5b9e\u4f53 |
\u6548\u679c\u7531\u4fe1\u6807\u65bd\u52a0 (effect applied by a beacon) | \u6548\u679c \u7531\u4fe1 \u6807 \u65bd\u52a0 | \u6548\u679c \u7531 \u4fe1\u6807 \u65bd\u52a0 |
Vector-based retrieval for the gaming industry
High-quality vector-based retrieval models are provided based on the vertical data distribution of the gaming industry. These models ensure retrieval quality for long-tail queries, queries that contain typos, and queries whose retrieval depends on synonym rewriting. In the following examples, the retrieved documents are shown as English translations. Queries that rely on Chinese characters are represented as Unicode escape sequences (\uXXXX) with an English explanation. To test these queries, decode the escape sequences into the actual Chinese characters before you enter them.
Vector-based retrieval
query | blhx (the pinyin initials of the Chinese title of Azur Lane) |
Vector-based retrieval top 1 | Commander: Azur Lane |
Vector-based retrieval top 2 | Grenville added to the Supply Shop exchange - Azur Lane |
Vector-based retrieval top 3 | Azur Lane: Luck and speed |
query | \u539f\u5ba1\u5730\u56fe (a misspelling of "Genshin Impact map" in which the second character of the game title is replaced by a similar-sounding character) |
Vector-based retrieval top 1 | Map - Genshin Impact |
Vector-based retrieval top 2 | Map tutorial - Genshin Impact |
Vector-based retrieval top 3 | Genshin Impact map tool |
query | \u70df\u96e8\u6c5f\u6d45\u6ee9\u6e38 (a query that contains an incorrect form of the game title Yanyu Jianghu) |
Vector-based retrieval top 1 | Yanyu Jianghu: A must-read for newcomers |
Vector-based retrieval top 2 | Yanyu Jianghu: Ultimate monsters |
Vector-based retrieval top 3 | Yanyu Jianghu: Taiyi hidden sect sword technique |
Usage notes
For information about how to create an application of the Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming, see Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming.
Applications of the exclusive general-purpose edition can be converted to the industry-enhanced edition. Applications of the industry-enhanced edition cannot be converted to the general-purpose edition.
The Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming applies only to exclusive applications.
If you change the specifications of a shared application to exclusive and then adapt the application to the Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming, make sure that the specifications of the online application are consistent with the instance specifications (both are exclusive) before you perform the adaptation to the Industry Algorithm Edition for gaming.
You must add the field names that correspond to the field tags to the application schema. Otherwise, an error is reported.
