πŸš€ Talk: Evaluating a RAG: From Retrieval to Generated Answers


Speaker: Vladimir Ageev, EPAM Systems

Since Retrieval-Augmented Generation is one of the most popular types of LLM applications today, it is important to control and evaluate its quality, how well the answers are grounded in a given context. In this talk, we will cover the common RAG components, such as retrieval and ranking, as well as answer generation with an LLM, and review approaches to their evaluation, both classical and LLM-based.
