FAQPage Schema
How do I improve retrieval accuracy for semantic search over indexed documents?

Improve semantic search accuracy by optimizing chunk size and overlap to balance context and precision, selecting recommended embedding models for CPU inference, and re-indexing content to ensure optimal document retrieval quality.

What is the best way to chunk documents for a RAG pipeline?

The best way to chunk documents for a RAG pipeline is to apply balanced chunk sizes with appropriate overlap, ensuring sufficient context is preserved for embedding generation while maintaining retrieval precision across the vector database.

Why does my document indexing pipeline return poor search results?

Poor search results in a document indexing pipeline often stem from suboptimal chunking strategies, inadequate embedding models, or outdated vector indexes, requiring troubleshooting and re-indexing to improve coverage and retrieval performance.

Can I use CPU inference for generating embeddings across large knowledge bases?

Yes, you can use CPU inference for generating embeddings across large knowledge bases by utilizing recommended embedding models and runtimes, enabling efficient document indexing and semantic search without requiring specialized GPU hardware.

When do I need a vector database for retrieval-augmented generation workflows?

You need a vector database for retrieval-augmented generation workflows when storing and searching extracted text embeddings, enabling fast semantic search and knowledge retrieval across large document collections and codebases.

How do I set up a document indexing pipeline for code and documentation retrieval?

Set up a document indexing pipeline by extracting text, chunking content, generating embeddings, and storing vectors in a database, enabling accurate semantic search and knowledge retrieval across code and documentation.
