Step-by-step guide to creating an index, generating embeddings, and executing hybrid queries that combine full-text and vector search using Azure AI Search.
This article explains how to choose effective chunk boundaries and overlap in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems, comparing fixed-size and document-aware strategies. Using a hypothetical support note example, it demonstrates the risks of splitting across semantic units and shows how metadata and overlap can preserve context. The guidance is based on Microsoft Azure documentation for chunking in vector search and RAG workflows.
Explore the principles of semantic search, its reliance on embeddings, and the reasons why text that appears similar might not provide the desired answer. Learn about vector search, hybrid search, and their applications in information retrieval.
Learn how to effectively evaluate the precision and recall of AI models, especially when working with small question datasets. This guide covers the concepts, calculation methods, and practical considerations using scikit-learn.
How retrieval connects a language model to documents, and why a citation is not a guarantee.
