Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol. 1 #2] Why the same vector search that handles synonyms and paraphrase silently fails on negation, exact identifiers, and your company’s acronyms, and what to use when it does.
Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol. 1 #7B] - Retrieval is filtering on structured tables: keywords first, TOC second, embeddings last The post Finding the right anchors for RAG: keyword, embedding, and TOC signals in parallel appeared first on Towards Data Science .
The article explains that enterprise document intelligence can be categorized into three distinct corpus types, each requiring a specific architecture. It outlines how to determine the shape of a document collection through three key questions. The piece also discusses the costs associated with building a system for the incorrect corpus type.

The article argues that Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is only one tool in NLP, and many real-world problems—such as request classification, free‑text matching, table reading, and OCR noise cleaning—are better served by simpler, cheaper techniques. It emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate method for each task and highlights the engineering challenge of knowing which technique to apply.

The article "From Words to Vectors: What Happens in Between?" explores the process of converting textual data into numerical representations, focusing on techniques such as TF-IDF and vector space models. It discusses how these representations enable text classification tasks and provides a practical overview of the underlying concepts. The piece serves as a guide for readers interested in the mechanics of text preprocessing and feature extraction for machine learning.
Hybrid Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Knowledge Graph Expansion, RRF Fusion, and Per-Chunk Grounded Evaluation for Enterprise Document Search describes DocuSearch, an offline multi‑agent system designed for telecom network operations. The system combines semantic vector search, BM25 full‑text search, and knowledge‑graph neighbor expansion, merges the results via Reciprocal Rank Fusion, and reranks with a cross‑encoder before pruning with Maximal Marginal Relevance. A per‑chunk evaluation loop ensures only grounded answers are returned, achieving Precision@10 of 0.69, Recall@10 of 0.79, and an 89.6% grounding rate—improvements of 15, 16, and 18.4 percentage points over a dense‑only baseline.

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol. 1 #7A] - Stop searching strings.
arXiv:2602. 09616v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliable retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems depend fundamentally on the retriever's ability to find relevant information.
The article discusses how noisy text—stemming from user typos, rapid transcription errors, and OCR character mistakes—poses challenges for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. It explains that traditional spell-checking only addresses one type of error, while embeddings are needed to handle the remaining noise. The piece highlights the need for more robust solutions in enterprise document intelligence.
