Session Goal

The session aimed to analyze and enhance the Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline for contact management queries, focusing on improving retrieval quality and prompt engineering.

Key Activities

  • Analyzed the failure in the RAG pipeline for contact management queries, identifying issues in answer generation, retrieval quality, and prompt structure.
  • Developed strategies for crafting retriever-friendly queries, emphasizing specific keywords and temporal anchors to enhance retrieval performance.
  • Proposed the β€˜Retriever-Bait Paragraph Strategy’ to improve retrieval performance using longer paragraphs and elaborate queries.
  • Analyzed a successful retrieval phase, highlighting strong lexical overlap and temporal grounding, and suggested improvements.
  • Outlined a systematic RAG-driven recovery plan to address unfinished projects using specific retriever prompts and post-processing strategies.

Achievements

  • Identified key problems in the RAG pipeline and proposed actionable strategies to address them.
  • Developed templates and strategies for query optimization and retrieval enhancement.

Pending Tasks

  • Implement the proposed strategies and templates to test their effectiveness in real-world scenarios.
  • Further explore the integration of fuzzy matching techniques to enhance retrieval quality.
