New research evaluates RAG pipelines, balancing performance and efficiency

A new paper evaluates different retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, comparing traditional text-based methods with newer multimodal approaches that utilize vision-language models. The research analyzes the trade-offs between retrieval quality, computational cost, and memory usage for various textual and multimodal pipelines, including dense and late-interaction architectures. The authors propose a data-driven methodology to help practitioners select the most effective RAG pipeline based on their specific document corpus and resource constraints. AI

IMPACT Provides guidance for selecting optimal RAG pipelines, balancing performance with computational efficiency for various document types.

    Evaluating Modern RAG: Textual, Multimodal, Dense, and Late Interaction Pipelines

    Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems have traditionally relied on text-based pipelines that extract and retrieve information from documents. While efficient and lightweight, these approaches often struggle with documents where meaning is conveyed through layout, tables, a…
