Research direction

Review the client-side post-filtering described in this issue and the linked .NET score-threshold issue, then check the linked Azure AI Search documentation for the feature's release status. Done means using Azure AI Search's native score-threshold support once it is no longer in preview instead of client-side filtering.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In .Net: VectorStore: Add ability to filter results by the similarity score (microsoft/semantic-kernel#9566), we added MEVD support for score thresholds, to avoid fetching low-quality results. Azure AI Search does support this, but in preview only at this point.

For now, we've implemented client-side post-filtering. Once the feature is no longer in preview we should use it.
