[向量搜索 (Vector Search)](/vector-search/vector-search-overview.md) 是一种优先考虑数据语义以提供相关结果的搜索方法。与传统的全文搜索([Full-Text Search](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/fulltext-search.html),主要依赖于精确的关键词匹配和词频)不同,向量搜索通过将不同类型的数据(如文本、图像或音频)转换为高维向量,并根据这些向量之间的相似度来进行查询。这种搜索方法能够捕捉数据的语义特征和上下文信息,从而更准确地理解用户意图。即使搜索的词语与数据库中的内容不完全匹配,向量搜索仍然可以通过对数据语义的理解,找到与用户意图相符合的结果。
