UnverifiedVector retrieval performs terribly at looking up exact identifiers (such as contract numbers, customer names, date ranges, and material codes), because embedding models compress text into dense vectors, and similarity ranking has no binding force for exact equality.73% similarUnverifiedVector search compares semantic similarity and is inherently poor at exact matching (such as numbers, dates, and codes); directed queries are a weakness of vector search.72% similarUnverifiedRelying solely on vector similarity retrieval often yields imprecise recall, necessitating a hybrid retrieval approach that combines keyword-based retrieval.71% similarUnverifiedThe shortcomings of Naive RAG include: single vector retrieval tends to overlook exact keyword matching, there is no metadata filtering, and the lack of reranking results in insufficiently refined relevance ordering.70% similarUnverifiedThe keyword-matching judgment method has limitations: a user who happens to mention the correct keywords within an incorrect solution may still be marked as passing.68% similar
