RAG Pipeline
Trends & Concepts
Process: Index → Retrieval → Generation.
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) combines information retrieval with text generation.
- Steps: Vectorize documents → retrieve relevant chunks → provide as context → generate an answer.
- Strengths: Factual grounding, up-to-date knowledge, reduced hallucination.
- Best practices: Index hygiene, chunking, citation strategy, recall/precision evaluation.
