“特斯拉的主要风险因素是什么?”(基于特斯拉2021年10K报告) “Milvus 2.4有哪些功能?”(基于Milvus 2.4 release note)
总结性问题:例如,“给我一个公司10K年度报告的总结”,Naive RAG难以在不丢失重要信息的情况下生成全面的总结。 比较性问题:例如,“Milvus 2.4 与Milvus 2.3 区别有哪些”,Naive RAG难以有效地进行多文档比较。 结构化分析和语义搜索:例如,“告诉我美国表现最好的网约车公司的风险因素”,Naive RAG难以在复杂的语义搜索和结构化分析中表现出色。 一般性多部分问题:例如,“告诉我文章A中的支持X的论点,再告诉我文章B中支持Y的论点,按照我们的内部风格指南制作一个表格,然后基于这些事实生成你自己的结论”,Naive RAG难以处理多步骤、多部分的复杂任务。

Naive RAG上述痛点的原因单次处理:Naive RAG通常是一次性处理查询,缺乏多步骤的推理能力。 缺乏查询理解和规划:Naive RAG无法深入理解查询的复杂性,也无法进行任务规划。 缺乏工具使用能力:Naive RAG无法调用外部工具或API来辅助完成任务。 缺乏反思和错误纠正:Naive RAG无法根据反馈进行自我改进。 无记忆(无状态):Naive RAG无法记住对话历史,无法在多轮对话中保持上下文一致性。

从RAG到Agentic RAG路由 路由是最简单的代理推理形式。给定用户查询和一组选择,系统可以输出一个子集,将查询路由到合适的处理模块。 工具 调用外部工具或API来辅助完成任务。比如,使用查询天气接口来获取最新的天气信息。 查询/任务规划 将查询分解为可并行处理的子查询。每个子查询可以针对任何一组RAG管道执行,从而提高处理效率和准确性。 反思 使用反馈来改进代理的执行并减少错误,反馈可以来自LLM自身。 记忆 除了当前查询外,还可以将对话历史作为输入,纳入RAG管道中,从而在多轮对话中保持上下文一致性。

实践SentenceWindowNodeParser
分段之后,导入到Milvus。node_parser = SentenceWindowNodeParser.from_defaults(
window_size=3,
window_metadata_key="window",
original_text_metadata_key="original_text",
)
# Extract nodes from documents
nodes = node_parser.get_nodes_from_documents(documents)
vector_store = MilvusVectorStore(dim=1536,
uri="http://localhost:19530",
collection_name='agentic_rag',
overwrite=True,
enable_sparse=False,
hybrid_ranker="RRFRanker",
hybrid_ranker_params={"k": 60})
storage_context = StorageContext.from_defaults(vector_store=vector_store)
index = VectorStoreIndex(
nodes,
storage_context=storage_context
)
SummaryIndex
对于文档块提取summary。def vector_query(
query: str,
page_numbers: Optional[List[int]] = None
) -> str:
# The target key defaults to `window` to match the node_parser's default
postproc = MetadataReplacementPostProcessor(
target_metadata_key="window"
)
# BAAI/bge-reranker-base is a cross-encoder model
# link: https://huggingface.co/BAAI/bge-reranker-base
rerank = BGERerankFunction(
top_n = 3,
model_name = "BAAI/bge-reranker-base",
device="cpu"
)
# The QueryEngine class is equipped with the generator and facilitates the retrieval and generation steps
query_engine = vector_index.as_query_engine(
similarity_top_k = 3,
vector_store_query_mode="hybrid", # Milvus starts supporting from version 2.4, use 'Default' for versions before 2.4
node_postprocessors = [postproc, rerank],
)
response = query_engine.query(query)
return response
vector_query_tool = FunctionTool.from_defaults(
name=f"vector_tool_{name}",
fn=vector_query
)
summary_index = SummaryIndex(nodes)
summary_query_engine = summary_index.as_query_engine(
response_mode="tree_summarize",
use_async=True,
)
summary_tool = QueryEngineTool.from_defaults(
name=f"summary_tool_{name}",
query_engine=summary_query_engine,
description=(
f"Useful for summarization questions related to {name}"
),
)
ReActAgentWorker
整合vector query tool 和summary tool,以及React的特性,反思,路由以及使用工具能力,实现Agentic RAG。response = agent.query(
"Tell me about the difference between milvus 2.3 and milvus 2.4?"
)
Thought: The user is asking about the differences between Milvus 2.3 and Milvus 2.4. I need to gather information about both versions to provide a comprehensive comparison.
Action: vector_tool_milvus_2_3
Action Input: {'query': "What's new in Milvus 2.3?"}
Thought: It appears there is a persistent issue with the tool input. I will try using a different tool to gather the necessary information.
Action: summary_tool_milvus_2_3
Action Input: {'input': "What's new in Milvus 2.3?"}
Observation: Milvus 2.3 introduces several new features and enhancements, including GPU support, Arm64 support, a refactored QueryNode, and a merged IndexCoord and DataCoord for simplified deployment. It also includes a new NATS-based message queue, upsert API, range search, count statement, cosine metrics, raw vectors in search returns, ScaNN index support, iterator functionality, JSON_CONTAINS expressions, and CDC support. Additionally, there are performance improvements such as MMap for capacity increase, optimized data filtering, growing index, and increased resource usage in multi-core environments. The release also features a new load balancer, dynamic configuration support, tracing support, reorganized error codes, and upgraded tools like Birdwatcher and Attu.
