Relevance and Scoring Mechanisms for RAGs

via Pluralsight

Overview

Master ranking algorithms and advanced scoring with Python. This course covers BM25, BERT, semantic similarity, and ensemble methods, focusing on effective document retrieval, evaluation, and optimization for sophisticated search systems.

As data complexity increases, traditional search and ranking methods can become inadequate. In this course, Relevance and Scoring Mechanisms for RAGs, you'll explore cutting-edge ranking and scoring techniques to elevate your information retrieval systems. First, you’ll learn about foundational ranking algorithms such as BM25 and cosine similarity to grasp the basics of document relevance. Then, you’ll dive into sophisticated techniques like BERT embeddings and semantic matching with Sentence Transformers to handle complex queries and enhance retrieval accuracy. Finally, you’ll gain practical skills in implementing and optimizing these techniques using Python libraries, including tuning and adapting methods for specific tasks and domains. By the end of this course, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of modern ranking algorithms, be able to apply advanced scoring methods, and effectively optimize search and retrieval systems for improved performance and accuracy.
