1. 面试题目 #

在构建和部署多知识库RAG（检索增强生成）系统时，如何有效平衡查询效率与准确性，并最大程度地减少模型幻觉？请从系统架构、检索策略和幻觉抑制机制等多个维度进行详细阐述。

2. 参考答案 #

2.1 引言 #

多知识库RAG系统旨在利用多个外部知识源增强大型语言模型（LLM）的回答能力，但同时也带来了新的挑战，主要体现在如何高效准确地从海量信息中检索，以及如何有效抑制模型生成不准确或虚构的"幻觉"内容。解决这些问题需要从系统架构、检索策略和幻觉抑制机制等多个层面进行综合优化。

2.2 平衡查询效率与准确性 #

2.2.1 统一嵌入模型与语义粒度标准化 #

核心原理： 确保所有知识库中的文档都使用同一个高性能的向量嵌入模型，并制定统一的文档分块策略。

实现方法：

class UnifiedEmbeddingService:
    def __init__(self, model_name="bge-base-zh-v1.5"):
        from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
        self.model = SentenceTransformer(model_name)
        self.chunk_size = 512
        self.chunk_overlap = 50

    def process_documents(self, documents):
        """统一处理文档"""
        processed_docs = []

        for doc in documents:
            # 1. 统一分块策略
            chunks = self.chunk_document(doc)

            # 2. 生成嵌入向量
            embeddings = self.model.encode([chunk['content'] for chunk in chunks])

            # 3. 添加元数据
            for i, (chunk, embedding) in enumerate(zip(chunks, embeddings)):
                processed_docs.append({
                    'content': chunk['content'],
                    'embedding': embedding,
                    'source': doc['source'],
                    'chunk_id': f"{doc['id']}_{i}",
                    'knowledge_base': doc['knowledge_base']
                })

        return processed_docs

    def chunk_document(self, document):
        """统一分块策略"""
        content = document['content']
        chunks = []

        # 按段落分割
        paragraphs = content.split('\n\n')

        for para in paragraphs:
            if len(para) <= self.chunk_size:
                chunks.append({'content': para})
            else:
                # 按句子进一步分割
                sentences = self.split_sentences(para)
                current_chunk = ""

                for sentence in sentences:
                    if len(current_chunk) + len(sentence) <= self.chunk_size:
                        current_chunk += sentence
                    else:
                        if current_chunk:
                            chunks.append({'content': current_chunk})
                        current_chunk = sentence

                if current_chunk:
                    chunks.append({'content': current_chunk})

        return chunks

2.2.2 多知识库路由策略 #

核心原理： 通过轻量级LLM分析用户查询意图，动态选择最相关的子知识库进行检索。

class KnowledgeBaseRouter:
    def __init__(self, knowledge_bases, routing_model):
        self.knowledge_bases = knowledge_bases
        self.routing_model = routing_model
        self.domain_classifier = self.build_domain_classifier()

    def build_domain_classifier(self):
        """构建领域分类器"""
        # 基于关键词的简单分类器
        domain_keywords = {
            '技术': ['编程', '代码', '算法', '开发', '技术'],
            '产品': ['产品', '功能', '特性', '用户体验'],
            '销售': ['销售', '客户', '订单', '价格', '促销'],
            '客服': ['问题', '帮助', '支持', '故障', '投诉']
        }
        return domain_keywords

    def route_query(self, query):
        """路由查询到相关知识库"""
        # 1. 轻量级LLM意图判断
        intent = self.analyze_intent(query)

        # 2. 基于意图选择知识库
        relevant_kbs = self.select_knowledge_bases(intent)

        return relevant_kbs

    def analyze_intent(self, query):
        """分析查询意图"""
        prompt = f"""

        """

        response = self.routing_model.generate(prompt)
        domains = [d.strip() for d in response.split(',')]

        return {
            'domains': domains,
            'confidence': self.calculate_confidence(query, domains)
        }

    def select_knowledge_bases(self, intent):
        """选择相关知识库"""
        selected_kbs = []

        for domain in intent['domains']:
            if domain in self.knowledge_bases:
                selected_kbs.append(self.knowledge_bases[domain])

        return selected_kbs

2.2.3 分阶段召回机制 #

核心原理： 采用粗召回+精排的两阶段机制，在保证效率的同时提升准确性。

class TwoStageRetriever:
    def __init__(self, vector_store, reranker):
        self.vector_store = vector_store
        self.reranker = reranker

    def retrieve(self, query, top_k=5):
        """两阶段检索"""
        # 第一阶段：粗召回
        coarse_results = self.coarse_retrieval(query, top_k * 4)

        # 第二阶段：精排
        fine_results = self.fine_ranking(query, coarse_results, top_k)

        return fine_results

    def coarse_retrieval(self, query, top_n):
        """粗召回阶段"""
        # 使用向量相似度搜索
        query_embedding = self.vector_store.encode_query(query)

        # 快速检索大量候选文档
        candidates = self.vector_store.similarity_search(
            query_embedding, 
            top_k=top_n
        )

        return candidates

    def fine_ranking(self, query, candidates, top_k):
        """精排阶段"""
        # 使用重排模型进行精细排序
        reranked_results = []

        for candidate in candidates:
            score = self.reranker.score(query, candidate['content'])
            reranked_results.append({
                **candidate,
                'rerank_score': score
            })

        # 按重排分数排序
        reranked_results.sort(key=lambda x: x['rerank_score'], reverse=True)

        return reranked_results[:top_k]

2.6 总结 #

构建高效、准确且低幻觉的多知识库RAG系统是一个系统工程，需要：

1. 统一标准化：使用统一的嵌入模型和分块策略确保语义一致性
2. 智能路由：通过意图识别动态选择相关知识库提升效率
3. 分阶段检索：采用粗召回+精排的两阶段机制平衡效率与准确性
4. 多重验证：通过可信度过滤、约束提示词和生成后验证减少幻觉
5. 持续监控：建立完善的性能监控体系，持续优化系统表现

通过这些策略的综合应用，可以显著提升多知识库RAG系统的整体性能和可靠性。
