Does it support hybrid search methods?

Yes, it includes advanced patterns for combining semantic (dense) search with traditional keyword (sparse/BM25) search for optimal retrieval precision.

What is RAG in AI development?

RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is a technique that grants LLMs access to external, up-to-date data to improve accuracy, provide citations, and reduce hallucinations.

Which vector databases does this skill support?

The skill provides implementation patterns for major providers including Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, Chroma, Qdrant, and FAISS.

Can I implement this for local document processing?

Absolutely. The skill covers local vector store configurations like Chroma and various text-splitting strategies suitable for local file directories.

How does this skill help prevent AI hallucinations?

It provides specific prompt engineering templates and retrieval patterns that require the model to ground its responses strictly within the retrieved context.

データサイエンスとML

Builds robust Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems using vector databases and semantic search to ground AI responses in proprietary data.

概要

This skill empowers developers to architect and implement sophisticated Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines that connect LLMs to external knowledge sources. It provides deep technical guidance on the entire RAG lifecycle, from document preprocessing and optimal chunking strategies to embedding model selection and vector database configuration. By leveraging advanced patterns like hybrid search, cross-encoder reranking, and contextual compression, this skill helps reduce hallucinations and ensures that AI applications provide factually accurate, source-cited responses based on private or domain-specific documentation.
