Hybrid Search
The alpha parameter determines the weight given to the sparse and dense search methods. alpha = 0 is pure sparse (bm25) search, whereas alpha = 1 is pure dense (vector) search.
Alpha is an optional parameter. The default is set to 0.75.
Hybrid Search only
The below query is finding Jeopardy questions about animals and is limiting the output to only two results. Notice alpha is set to 0.80, which means it is weighing the vector search results more than bm25. If you were to set alpha = 0.25, you would get different results.
