RAG Embedding

Definitions

1. An embedding used within a retrieval-augmented generation system to represent documents, chunks, or queries for semantic search. The embedding model chosen for RAG can strongly affect retrieval quality.

   In plain English: The embedding representation used to power retrieval in a RAG system.

   Example: "They rebuilt the index with a better RAG embedding model after users kept getting semantically similar but policy-irrelevant results."
