GUIDE

Advanced RAG Techniques

A guide to help improve the performance of your Retrieval-Augmented Generation applications.

About the guide

The advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques e-book provides an overview of different techniques to improve the performance of your RAG application. It covers techniques along all stages of the RAG pipeline, including:


  • Indexing optimization techniques (data pre-processing, chunking strategies)
  • Pre-retrieval optimization techniques (query transformation, query decomposition, query routing)
  • Retrieval optimization techniques (metadata filtering, excluding vector search outlier, hybrid search, embedding model fine-tuning)
  • Post-retrieval optimization techniques (re-ranking, context post-processing, prompt engineering, LLM fine-tuning)
