Optimizing RAG Systems with Context Window Management Techniques

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

This article discusses strategies for managing the context window limitations of large language models, particularly within retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems. It explores techniques such as token budgeting, data compression, and evidence ordering to optimize performance and mitigate issues like the "lost in the middle" problem. The piece is presented as the twelfth part of a RAG engineering series. AI
