• Abstract summary: Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) models integrate large-scale pre-trained generative models with external retrieval mechanisms. These challenges primarily involve the preprocessing, embedding, retrieval, prompt construction, language modeling, and response evaluation of the system. We propose novel solutions to overcome these obstacles and evaluate our approach using several Persian benchmark datasets.

• Abstract: Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) models, which integrate large-scale pre-trained generative models with external retrieval mechanisms, have shown significant success in various natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, applying RAG models in Persian language as a low-resource language, poses distinct challenges. These challenges primarily involve the preprocessing, embedding, retrieval, prompt construction, language modeling, and response evaluation of the system. In this paper, we address the challenges towards implementing a real-world RAG system for Persian language called PersianRAG. We propose novel solutions to overcome these obstacles and evaluate our approach using several Persian benchmark datasets. Our experimental results demonstrate the capability of the PersianRAG framework to enhance question answering task in Persian.

  The research aims to improve retrieval and generation accuracy by introducing Persian-specific models. Three datasets-general knowledge(PQuad), scientifically specialized texts, and organizational reports- were used to assess these models. MatinaSRoberta outperformed previous embeddings, achieving superior contextual relevance and retrieval accuracy across datasets.

It is expected that this factorization can transfer the improvement of the standalone language model to the Transducer for speech recognition. We demonstrate that the proposed factorized neural Transducer yields 15% to 20% WER improvements when out-of-domain text data is used for language model adaptation.
