ShopEase framework uses LLaMA 3.2 for enterprise customer support

A new research paper introduces ShopEase, a multi-agent framework designed for intelligent enterprise customer support. This system integrates six components, including intent recognition, CRM interaction, memory management, a hybrid retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) module, escalation capabilities, and a supervisor. ShopEase utilizes LLaMA 3.2 for response generation, running locally via Ollama. The retrieval system was tested with various configurations, combining FAISS (dense retrieval) and BM25 (sparse retrieval), with FAISS-only achieving the highest accuracy of 85.37%. The research found that dense retrieval performed best, and adding cross-encoder reranking increased latency without improving classification accuracy. AI

IMPACT This framework could improve efficiency and accuracy in enterprise customer support by leveraging advanced retrieval and generation techniques.
