Hey HN!
We’ve published a series of open-source notebooks showcasing Advanced RAG and Agentic architectures, and we’re excited to share our latest compilation of Agentic RAG techniques!
These Colab-ready notebooks are designed to be plug-and-play, making it easy to integrate them into your projects.
We're actively expanding the repository and would love your input to shape its future.
What Advanced RAG technique should we add next?

Hey HN fam,
We’ve seen developers spend a lot of time implementing advanced RAG techniques from scratch.
While these techniques are essential for improving performance, their implementation requires a lot of effort and testing!
To help with this process, our team (Athina AI) has released Open-Source Advanced RAG Cookbooks.
This is a collection of ready-to-run Google Colab notebooks featuring the most commonly implemented techniques.
Please show us some love by starring the repo if you find this useful!
98 points · Open discussionI agree and I have practical proof to say that. In an experiment we did at Athina, we made a cookbook for every RAG Technique out there and then evaluated it. We used different vector Db's, different embeddings and we saw different results. You should check out the Github Repo: https://github.com/athina-ai/rag-cookbooks
In Embeddings Drive the Quality of RAG (2023)RAG is amazing. For all the RAG techniques that are being used by enterprises today, here is an amazing repo that provides Google Collab Links for each technique implementation along with an evaluation framework fully implemented.

In Show HN: Agentic Evaluators for Agentic Workflows (Starting with RAG)Large Language Models are trained on a fixed dataset, which limits their ability to handle private or recent information. They can sometimes "hallucinate", providing incorrect yet believable answers. The Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework addresses this issue by using external documents to improve the LLM's responses through in-context learning. RAG ensures that the information provided by the LLM is not only contextually relevant but also accurate and up-to-date. If you want to learn more about it along with a code implementation of every technique, you should check this repo out: https://github.com/athina-ai/rag-cookbooks
