 . This session introduces embedding models as a core component of modern m
 achine learning systems for clustering\, ranking\, and large-scale informa
 tion retrieval. It explains how embeddings are trained\, covering represen
 tation learning theory\, contrastive and metric-learning losses\, and data
  preparation strategies that influence embedding quality. An EmbeddingGemm
 a‑style code walkthrough illustrates dataset construction\, pairing\, an
 d negative sampling\, and connects training choices to retrieval performan
 ce using a real-world agentic search application at Dell.</p><p>Level of D
