Got my first internship!

Research summer internship at The University of Nottingham


I am glad to announce that I have been accepted for the guided summer internship program to create and research my own vector database search web app. I am hoping to build a book recommendation system using OpenAI embeddings in a WeaviateDB vector database under a JS web app.

Possible Flow

  1. User enters their favorite book
  2. System checks if that book is already in WeaviateDB
  3. If it is, it uses the embeddings already generated to find its nearest semantic neighbor for similar books.
  4. If not, I plan to call the ISBNdb API and embed the description of the book on the fly and then similarity search.

I’ll update here on my progress.
