Modular RAG and its integration with other systems
Modular RAG is a further advancement; it can be considered as an extension of advanced RAG but focused on adaptability and versatility. In this sense, the modular system means it has separate components that can be used either sequentially or in parallel.
The pipeline itself is remodeled, with alternating search and generation. In general, modular RAG involves optimizing the system toward performance and adapting to different tasks. Modular RAG introduces modules for this that are specialized. Some examples of the modules that are included are as follows:
- Search module: This module is responsible for finding relevant information about a query. It allows searching through search engines, databases, and knowledge graphs (KGs). It can also use sophisticated search algorithms, use machine learning, and execute code.
- Memory module: This module serves to store relevant information during the search process. In addition, the...
