Knowledge Base Retrieval for College Admissions Health Examination Organization: Manage Authorized Access and External Services

Admissions Health Exams: review retrieval for authorized access. Check source versions, input mappings and the values received by downstream nodes.

What this category's data looks like

In external services, university admissions medical examination organizations commonly handle materials including medical examination forms, re-examination applications, and restricted major notifications. These come from examination stations, admissions offices, and higher-level supervisory departments, with update cadence advancing by batch and re-examination round. Medical examination forms carry candidates' basic information, past medical history, and conclusions for each subject; re-examination applications record re-examination items, application dates, and approval opinions; restricted major notifications list restricted major names, basis clauses, and receipt signatures. After these three types of materials enter the knowledge base retrieval and recall function, each serves as a source of candidate segments: medical examination forms provide conclusive fields, re-examination applications provide process and date fields, and restricted major notifications provide major name and notification receipt fields. Field characteristics center on names, quantities, dates, and signatures. If the same record's name, quantity, or date does not match across two materials, it directly affects the usability of recalled segments. When material versions are not synchronized or signature receipts are missing, candidate segments may still be recalled, but the authorization scope of the external entry still requires subsequent nodes or manual verification before being opened.

Configuration and implementation checks

This stage is executed by the knowledge base retrieval service (retrieval node and search test), outputting candidate segments and similarity scores (after pattern, merge, rerank, filter, and upper-limit trimming). The external entry and authorization scope are then completed by subsequent nodes or manually.

ObjectCheckVerification action
Medical examination formNames, quantities, dates, and signatures must align item by item with the re-examination application and restricted major notification; the same record must not have two sets of valuesIn the knowledge base search test, test once each with synonymous questions, compare the number of candidates and scores, and verify the original text segments retained after similarity filtering
Re-examination applicationRe-examination items, application date, and approval signature must be consistent with the conclusion date of the medical examination form; missing signature or receipt is considered incompleteSwitch searchMode to semantic, full-text, or hybrid, observe whether candidates simultaneously include both types of recall results, and record the array count
Restricted major notificationRestricted major names, basis clauses, and receipt signatures must be synchronized with the medical examination form conclusions and re-examination application version; old versions must not be referencedTurn usingReRank on and off, view the order of the top few items each time, and confirm that relevant segments remain in the front after reranking
External entry and authorization scopeVisitor identity matches visible scope; unauthorized content is not visible; restricted identities only see the corresponding batch and major scopeAccess once with a restricted identity, and verify whether the visible material list is consistent with the number of references after limit trimming

Three common errors

  • Symptom: The same candidate's major name, quantity, or date does not match between the medical examination form and the restricted major notification. Cause: The two materials are entered separately, versions are not synchronized, and they become separate segments during recall.
  • Symptom: The re-examination application lacks a signature or receipt, but candidate segments are still recalled and enter the external entry. Cause: The material circulation stage does not return the signed document, and the retrieval side only looks at text hits.
  • Symptom: Changing the phrasing results in failure to recall the restricted major notification. Cause: The retrieval mode does not match the material form, question optimization does not cover references, and candidates are not merged into the same batch.

How to verify the setup

Acceptance for this feature: test once each with synonymously rewritten questions, compare candidates and scores, then toggle reranking to view the order of the top few items; also record the array count and the tokens of quoted text. quoteMaxToken is only the quoted content budget and should not be compared for equality with the count.

Business test: access once with a restricted identity, check whether the visible scope matches the setting, and confirm unauthorized materials are not visible.

  • In the knowledge base search test, switch searchMode, compare the candidate count and scores under semantic, full-text, and hybrid modes, and confirm that after multi-path merging the candidates simultaneously cover both types of recall sources.
  • Turn usingReRank on and off, view the order of the top few items each time, then use similarity and limit to verify whether the filtered and trimmed quoted segments retain the key original paragraphs.
