Stop doing unscoped embeddings: 7 reasons relevance decays
📰 Medium · RAG
Learn why unscoped embeddings can decay relevance in retrieval quality and how to improve it with context-aware approaches
Action Steps
- Recognize the limitations of context-free embeddings
- Assess your current embedding pipeline for potential relevance decay
- Implement scoped or context-aware embeddings to improve retrieval quality
- Evaluate the impact of scoped embeddings on your system's performance
- Refine your embedding pipeline based on the evaluation results
- Explore alternative embedding techniques, such as RAG, to further optimize retrieval quality
