Special thanks to Zilliz for providing the infrastructure! ScholarSearch leverages the powerul paradigm of Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to provide a highly personalised learning experience.

What it does

ScholarSearch leverages Retrieval Augmented Generation to provide a highly personalised search engine. Query for a topic or general concept, and receive a detailed explanation that combines information across all of your notes. Scholar Search also engages the user in active learning through using the Feynman method -- to practice a topic, engage in conversational active learning where the model prompts the user and evaluates their responses.

How we built it

The backend was built in Python (Flask) and uses a Milvus vector database. The frontend was developed using React.
