| description | 📚 Explore retrieval augmented generation (RAG) techniques to enhance LLMs by integrating up-to-date external data for improved contextual understanding. |
Welcome to the RAG From Scratch project! This application helps you understand and implement retrieval augmented generation (RAG) with large language models (LLMs). It provides a practical approach to enhance LLMs by integrating external documents for better contextual awareness.
To run RAG From Scratch, ensure your system meets the following requirements:
- Operating System: Windows, macOS, or Linux
- Minimum RAM: 4 GB
- Disk Space: At least 200 MB available
- Internet connection for retrieving external documents
To get started, visit our GitHub Releases page to download the latest version of the software.
- Go to the Releases page.
- Find the latest release.
- Click on the file download link associated with your operating system.
- Save the file to your computer.
- Once downloaded, locate the file and double-click to run it.
RAG From Scratch offers the following features:
- Easy Setup: A straightforward installation process.
- User-Friendly Interface: Designed for non-technical users.
- Learn the Basics: Accompanying video content explains the fundamental concepts of RAG.
- Integration Support: Works with various data sources for document retrieval.
For a complete understanding of RAG, check out our video playlist. These videos walk you through the principles and practical applications of RAG, starting from indexing to generation.
RAG enhances LLMs by:
- Using external documents to provide relevant context
- Improving the model's ability to generate accurate and coherent responses
- Expanding the model's knowledge beyond its fixed data set
After installation, follow these steps to use the application:
- Open RAG From Scratch.
- Select your data source for retrieval.
- Input your query in the designated text box.
- Click the "Generate" button to receive context-aware responses based on your input and the retrieved documents.
