In this article, MLT means search that starts from a known document, not from a newly typed query. The classic MLT approach, or similar-document search, was based on comparing textual matches. Modern implementations increasingly use embeddings: numerical representations of documents. A search index stores embeddings as vectors, and the search system can find documents with close vector representations.…
