+Semantic re-ranking requires relatively large and complex machine learning models and operates in real-time in response to queries.
 This technique makes sense on a small _top-k_ result set, as one the of the final steps in a pipeline.
 This is a powerful technique for improving search relevance that works equally well with keyword, semantic, or hybrid retrieval algorithms.

+Semantic re-ranking enables a variety of use cases:
 
-* *Lexical (BM25) retrieval results reranking*
+* *Lexical (BM25) retrieval results re-ranking*
 ** Out-of-the-box semantic search by adding a simple API call to any lexical/BM25 retrieval pipeline.
 ** Adds semantic search capabilities on top of existing indices without reindexing, perfect for quick improvements.
 ** Ideal for environments with complex existing indices.
 
-* *Semantic retrieval results reranking*
+* *Semantic retrieval results re-ranking*
 ** Improves results from semantic retrievers using ELSER sparse vector embeddings or dense vector embeddings by using more powerful models.
 ** Adds a refinement layer on top of hybrid retrieval with <<rrf, reciprocal rank fusion (RRF)>>.
 
 * *General applications*
 ** Supports automatic and transparent chunking, eliminating the need for pre-chunking at index time.
 ** Provides explicit control over document relevance in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) uses cases or other scenarios involving language model (LLM) inputs.

 This enables you to maintain high relevance in result sets, by setting a minimum score threshold for all queries.
 For example, this is important when using results in a RAG workflow or if you're otherwise feeding results to LLMs.
 Note that similarity scores from bi-encoders/embedding similarities are _query-dependent_, meaning you cannot set universal cut-offs.
