Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
Draft Daniel Burkhardt :
Short definition/description of this topic: please fill in ...Draft Daniel Burkhardt : Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is a method that combines retrieval mechanisms with generative models to enhance the output of language models by incorporating external knowledge. This approach retrieves relevant information from a database or corpus and uses it to inform the generation process, leading to more accurate and contextually relevant outputs.
- Definition of RAG
- Types of RAG
- Standard RAG: Utilizes vector databases to retrieve documents based on semantic similarity, which are then used to augment the generative process of language models.
- Graph RAG: Integrates knowledge graphs into the RAG framework, allowing for the retrieval of structured data that can provide additional context and factual accuracy to the generative model
- Applications for RAG
- RAG is used in various natural language processing tasks, including question answering, information extraction, sentiment analysis, and summarization. It is particularly beneficial in scenarios requiring domain-specific knowledge, as it reduces the tendency of language models to generate hallucinated or incorrect information by grounding responses in retrieved facts.
KG-Guided Retrieval Mechanisms
...
Short definition/description of this topic: please fill in .. KG-Guided Retrieval Mechanisms involve using for example knowledge graphs or vector databases to enhance the retrieval process in RAG systems. Knowledge graphs provide a structured representation of knowledge, enabling more precise and contextually aware retrieval of information. This approach can directly query knowledge graphs or use them to augment queries to other data sources, improving the relevance and accuracy of the retrieved information.
Draft Robert David:
- Initial RAG idea: Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Knowledge-Intensive NLP Tasks
- RAG is commonly used with vector databases.
- can only grasp semantic similarity represented in the document content
- only unstructured data
- vector distance instead of a DB search limits the retrieval capabilities
- Graph RAG uses knowledge graphs as part of the RAG system
- KGs for retrieval (directly), meaning the database is storing KG data
- KGs for retrieval via a semantic layer, potentially retrieving over different data sources of structured and unstructured data
- KGs for augmenting the retrieval, meaning the queries to some database is modified via KG data
- Via Graph RAG, we can
- ingest additional semantic background knowledge (knowledge model) not represented in the data itself
- additional related knowledge based on defined paths (rule-based inference)
- focus on certain aspects of a data set for the retrieval (search configuration)
- personalization: represent different roles for retrieval via ingesting role description data into the retrieval (especially important in an enterprise environment)
- reasoning
- linked data makes factual knowledge related to the LLM-generated knowledge and thereby provide a means to check for correctness
- explainable AI: provide justifications via KG
- consolidate different data sources: unstructured, semi-structured, structured (enterprise knowledge graph scenario)
- doing the actual retrieval via KG queries: SPARQL
- hybrid retrieval: combine KG-based retrieval with vector databases or search indexes
- ingest additional semantic background knowledge (knowledge model) not represented in the data itself

Draft from Daniel Burkhardt:
Short definition/description of this topic: please fill in ...Draft from Daniel Burkhardt: Hybrid Retrieval combines the strengths of knowledge graphs and dense vector representations to improve information retrieval. This approach leverages the structured, relational data from knowledge graphs and the semantic similarity captured by dense vectors, resulting in enhanced retrieval capabilities. Hybrid retrieval systems can improve semantic understanding and contextual insights while addressing challenges like scalability and integration complexity.

KG-Enhanced LLM Interpretability
Draft from Daniel Burkhardt:
Short definition/description of this topic: please fill in ...Draft from Daniel Burkhardt: KG-Enhanced LLM Interpretability refers to the use of knowledge graphs to improve the transparency and explainability of large LLMs. By integrating structured knowledge from KGs, LLMs can generate more interpretable outputs, providing justifications and factual accuracy checks for their responses. This integration helps in aligning LLM-generated knowledge with factual data, enhancing trust and reliability.
