Shows concrete recipes: uses Sudachi tokenizer, script normalization and synonym expansion to prepare Japanese text, indexes Amazon Reviews and runs controlled comparisons of BM25 vs dense vector (HNSW/IVF) vs sparse models and a hybrid+sparse+BM25 fusion, measuring ranking metrics and latency. Demonstrates on-disk and quantized runs that cut memory to ~1/16 at measurable accuracy loss, uses OpenSearch neural search pipeline and neural search pipeline to embed at ingest and query time, and reports tradeoffs for chunking, re-ranking, and production deployment.
