SemanticFinder, semantic search in the browser with transformers.js
Hi folks! I created a frontend-only live semantic search engine based on transformers.js and sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2. Simply pour in your text and a query term. Hit enter and watch the search engine in action! It's highly customizable and stores the embeddings in a variable so that consecutive runs are very fast. You can tweak the segment length to reduce computation time or get get more precise results. I would be very happy to discuss some more usage ideas or receive PRs for improvements.

In plain words
SemanticFinder is a browser-based semantic search tool that runs entirely in the frontend using transformers.js and the all-MiniLM-L6-v2 model. Users input text and a query term to find semantically relevant results. The tool caches embeddings for faster repeated searches and offers customizable segment lengths to balance speed and precision. It is designed for anyone needing semantic search capabilities without server-side processing.

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

Hi HN, Today we’re launching GPT-4 answers on Phind.com, a developer-focused search engine that uses generative AI to browse the web and answer technical questions, complete with code examples and detailed explanations. Unlike vanilla GPT-4, Phind feeds in relevant websites and technical documentation, reducing the model’s hallucination and keeping it up-to-date. To use it, simply enable the “Expert” toggle before doing a search. GPT-4 is making a night-and-day difference in terms of answer quality. For a question like “How can I RLHF a LLaMa model”, Phind in Expert mode delivers a…
