Part II of this workshop series by the AI Service Center Berlin-Brandenburg at Hasso Plattner Institute focuses on building reliable and scalable Retrieval-Augmented-Generation systems. Participants will explore advanced methods for processing heterogeneous data sources and optimising retrieval pipelines for real-world use cases.
Using realistic sample datasets, the workshop covers strategies such as chunking, ranking, fusion, graph-based retrieval and systematic evaluation, enabling participants to improve the quality, robustness and performance of their RAG systems in practice.
