LightRAG是港大Data Lab提出一种基于知识图谱结构的RAG方案，相比GraphRAG具有更快更经济的特点。

架构

在这里插入图片描述

1 索引阶段：对文档进行切分处理，提取其中的实体和边分别进行向量化处理，存放在向量知识库
2 检索阶段：对用于输入分别提取局部和全局关键词，分别用于检索向量知识库中的实体和边关系，同时结合相关的chunk进行总结

下载方式

1 源码安装

1
2
cd LightRAG
pip install -e .

2 pypi源安装

1
pip install lightrag-hku

需要额外手动安装多个包，不太方便。建议从源码安装，可以直接下载所有依赖

        )
    ),

修改了模型需要重新构建新目录，否则部分参数会报错

可以设置查询时的参数，如检索模式、topk等

class QueryParam:
    mode: Literal["local", "global", "hybrid", "naive"] = "global"
    only_need_context: bool = False
    response_type: str = "Multiple Paragraphs"
    # Number of top-k items to retrieve; corresponds to entities in "local" mode and relationships in "global" mode.
    top_k: int = 60
    # Number of tokens for the original chunks.
    max_token_for_text_unit: int = 4000
    # Number of tokens for the relationship descriptions
    max_token_for_global_context: int = 4000
    # Number of tokens for the entity descriptions
    max_token_for_local_context: int = 4000

print(rag.query("What are the top themes in this story?", param=QueryParam(mode="naive")))

增量添加文档数据

与初始化图谱类似，执行insert操作即可。

with open("./newText.txt") as f:
    rag.insert(f.read())

添加自定义图谱

除了从文档创建图谱外，LightRAG还支持以离线的方式添加实体或者关系以及原始chunk。

}

rag.insert_custom_kg(custom_kg)

删除实体

# 删除特定名称的实体
rag.delete_by_entity("Project Gutenberg")

总结

● 在构建图谱的过程中为每个实体节点和关系边生成一个文本的键值对。每个索引键是一个单词或短语，用于高效检索，对应的值是一个经过总结外部数据后生成的文本段落，，有助于文本生成。
● 增量更新算法使得在新增文档的适合无需重新构建图谱，这使得LightRAG具有更显著的经济性和便捷性。
