Semantic Deduplication at Ingestion

Hybrid retrieval and semantic scoring to remove duplicates before downstream pipelines.

News articles and media
Data processing visualization

Challenge

Syndicated feeds produced near-duplicates with minor edits, inflating storage and compute while missing subtle reprints.

Solution

Fingerprinting for fast filtering, ANN candidate recall on embeddings, and a semantic reranker with thresholds tuned for stability and low false merges.

Results

Cleaner upstream feeds for downstream NLP

Lower indexing load and less redundant processing

Stable dedup decisions across changing topics
