Knowledge Base Retrieval for Vocational College Skills Competition Organization: Find Supporting Evidence

Skills Competitions: review retrieval for evidence lookup. Check source versions, input mappings and the values received by downstream nodes.

What this category's data looks like

This page addresses business basis queries in vocational college skills competition organization. Material types include competition regulations, registration forms, and training plans, with receipts and signature pages attached. Competition regulations provide event names, groups, dates, scoring criteria, and signature fields; registration forms record contestant names, ID numbers, majors, instructors, and submission dates; training plans contain weeks, training content, venues, coach signatures, and review dates. The three types of materials are updated by edition or academic year. The same record often appears in two materials with inconsistent names, quantities, or dates, versions not synchronized, and missing signatures or receipts. When materials enter knowledge base retrieval and recall, each participates as an independent source in candidate fragment generation, for subsequent nodes or manual reference back to the original text.

Configuration and implementation checks

This step is performed by the knowledge base retrieval service (retrieval node and search test), outputting candidate fragments and similarity scores (after pattern, merge, rerank, filter, and upper-limit trimming). The basis entries that can be traced back to the original text are then completed by subsequent nodes or manually.

Three common errors

  • Phenomenon: The same contestant name is written differently in the registration form and training plan, and the quantities do not match. Cause: The two materials were entered separately, without cross-material name and quantity verification.
  • Phenomenon: The competition regulations have been updated, but the registration form still references the old version's dates and groups. Cause: Versions are not synchronized, and old materials remain in retrieval scope without an invalid-version marker.
  • Phenomenon: The training plan lacks a coach signature or the receipt is missing, but retrieval still returns that fragment. Cause: Signatures and receipts are not included in material completeness verification, and candidates are not filtered by the current version.

How to verify the setup

Feature acceptance: Test once each with synonymously rewritten questions, compare candidates and scores, then toggle rerank to see the ranking of the top few results; switch searchMode to see candidate sources, adjust similarity to see the number of entries and scores, and enable usingReRank to compare ranking changes.

Business test: Ask a cross-material basis question, see whether the answer provides a traceable source, and verify and separately record the number of entries in the citation array and the citation text tokens.

  • In the knowledge base search test, retrieve once each for the same basis question using synonymous questions, record the number of candidates and scores, and switch searchMode to compare candidate sources.
  • Enable and disable usingReRank to compare the ranking of the top few results; adjust similarity to observe candidate changes, separately record the number of entries in the citation array, and verify the citation text tokens.
