AI - 谈谈RAG中的查询分析（2）
大家好，RAG中的查询分析是比较有趣的一个点，内容丰富，并不是一句话能聊的清楚的。今天接着上一篇，继续探讨RAG中的查询分析，并在功能层面和代码层面持续改进。
功能层面
如果用户问了一个不着边际的问题，也就是和工具无关的问题，那么无须调用工具，直接生成答案。否则，就调用工具，检索本地知识库，生成答案。
代码方面
-
考虑到在对答聊天中，对话状态是如此重要，所以我们可以直接使用LangChain内置的
MessagesState，而不用自己定义State类。pythonclass State(TypedDict): question: str query: Search context: List[Document] answer: str -
上一篇的
Search工具主要用于结构化输出，工具本身没有实质性内容，所以本篇会将retrieve作为一个工具，既可以绑定到LLM，也可以通过LangGraph内置的组件 ToolNode,，形成一个Graph节点，在收到LLM的应答之后，开始执行从本地知识库语义搜索的动作，最终生成一个ToolMessage。

导入必要的库
python
import os
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI, OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain_core.vectorstores import InMemoryVectorStore
import bs4
from langchain import hub
from langchain_community.document_loaders import WebBaseLoader
from langchain_core.documents import Document
from langchain_text_splitters import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter
from langgraph.graph import START, StateGraph, MessagesState
from typing_extensions import List, TypedDict
from langchain_core.tools import tool
from langchain_core.messages import SystemMessage
from langgraph.graph import END
from langgraph.prebuilt import ToolNode, tools_condition我们首先导入了需要的库，这些库提供了处理语言和存储向量的工具。
设置环境变量
python
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = 'your_openai_api_key'设置一些环境变量，用于API的身份验证和项目配置。
初始化嵌入模型和向量存储
python
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings(model="text-embedding-3-large")
vector_store = InMemoryVectorStore(embeddings)我们使用OpenAI的嵌入模型来创建文本嵌入，并在内存中初始化一个向量存储，用于后续的向量操作。
python
llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o-mini")初始化GPT-4小版本的语言模型，用于后续的AI对话生成。
加载和分割文档
python
loader = WebBaseLoader(
web_paths=("https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/",),
bs_kwargs=dict(
parse_only=bs4.SoupStrainer(
class_=("post-content", "post-title", "post-header")
)
),
)
docs = loader.load()
text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=200)
all_splits = text_splitter.split_documents(docs)加载指定网页的内容，并对页面内容进行解析和分割。分割后的文本块将用于嵌入和向量存储。
向量存储文档
python
_ = vector_store.add_documents(documents=all_splits)将分割后的文档片段添加到向量存储中，以供后续检索操作。
定义检索工具
python
@tool(response_format="content_and_artifact")
def retrieve(query: str):
"""Retrieve information related to a query."""
retrieved_docs = vector_store.similarity_search(query, k=2)
serialized = "\n\n".join(
(f"Source: {doc.metadata}\n" f"Content: {doc.page_content}")
for doc in retrieved_docs
)
return serialized, retrieved_docs定义一个检索工具函数retrieve，该函数可以根据查询在向量存储中进行相似性搜索，并返回检索到的文档内容。
定义步骤：生成工具调用或直接回复
python
def query_or_respond(state: MessagesState):
"""Generate tool call for retrieval or respond."""
llm_with_tools = llm.bind_tools([retrieve])
response = llm_with_tools.invoke(state["messages"])
return {"messages": [response]}该函数根据当前的消息状态生成调用检索工具的请求或直接生成回复。
定义步骤：执行检索工具
python
tools = ToolNode([retrieve])定义一个执行检索工具的步骤。
定义步骤：生成回答
python
def generate(state: MessagesState):
"""Generate answer."""
recent_tool_messages = []
for message in reversed(state["messages"]):
if message.type == "tool":
recent_tool_messages.append(message)
else:
break
tool_messages = recent_tool_messages[::-1]
docs_content = "\n\n".join(doc.content for doc in tool_messages)
system_message_content = (
"You are an assistant for question-answering tasks. "
"Use the following pieces of retrieved context to answer "
"the question. If you don't know the answer, say that you "
"don't know. Use three sentences maximum and keep the "
"answer concise."
"\n\n"
f"{docs_content}"
)
conversation_messages = [
message
for message in state["messages"]
if message.type in ("human", "system")
or (message.type == "ai" and not message.tool_calls)
]
prompt = [SystemMessage(system_message_content)] + conversation_messages
response = llm.invoke(prompt)
return {"messages": [response]}该函数生成最后的回答。它会首先收集最近的工具消息，并结合这些消息内容生成系统消息，然后与现有对话消息一起作为提示，最终调用LLM生成回复。
构建状态图
python
graph_builder = StateGraph(MessagesState)
graph_builder.add_node(query_or_respond)
graph_builder.add_node(tools)
graph_builder.add_node(generate)
graph_builder.set_entry_point("query_or_respond")
graph_builder.add_conditional_edges(
"query_or_respond",
tools_condition,
{END: END, "tools": "tools"},
)
graph_builder.add_edge("tools", "generate")
graph_builder.add_edge("generate", END)
graph = graph_builder.compile()使用状态图构建器创建一个消息状态图，并添加节点和条件边，确定消息的流转逻辑。
与状态图进行交互
python
input_message = "Hello"
for step in graph.stream(
{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": input_message}]},
stream_mode="values",
):
step["messages"][-1].pretty_print()
input_message = "What is Task Decomposition?"
for step in graph.stream(
{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": input_message}]},
stream_mode="values",
):
step["messages"][-1].pretty_print()我们通过给定的输入消息与状态图进行互动，流式处理消息，并最终打印出生成的回复。
LLM消息抓取
以上整个过程中，我们都是在调用LangChain API与LLM在进行交互，至于底层发送的请求细节，一无所知。在某些场景下面，我们还是需要去探究一下这些具体的细节，这样可以有一个全面的了解。下面我们看一下具体的发送内容，以上代码涉及到三个LLM交互。

}总结
本文通过OpenAI语言模型和自定义检索工具，构建了一个智能问答系统。首先，从网络上加载和分割文档内容，并将其存储到向量数据库中。然后，定义一个检索工具，可以根据查询请求从数据库中寻找相关文档。使用状态图管理对话流程，根据不同条件，系统会决定是否调用检索工具或者直接生成回复。最终，通过与状态图交互，实现智能应答。这样一个系统大大增强了自动化问答的能力，通过结合嵌入模型和语言模型，能够处理更为复杂和多样化的用户查询。
