What This Category of Data Looks Like
White home appliance research report data comes from securities firm research institutes, China Household Electrical Appliances Association, offline retail monitoring institutions, and brand official announcements. Update cycles cover weekly (offline retail data), monthly (online sales data), and quarterly (overall industry reports).
Document structure includes research report title, publishing institution, publishing time, core data tables, risk warnings, and appendices. Core data tables include shipment volume, average price, and sales volume by category. Fields include clear units such as "offline retail volume (units)", "online retail sales (yuan)", and "average price (yuan/unit)". Some research reports include unique identification numbers and original publication URLs.
Constraints on Citation Source and Traceability
The multi-source nature and varying update frequencies require traceability to label the data's publishing institution and time. This avoids cross-cycle reference errors.
The large number of structured tables in documents requires traceability to accurately locate specific cells or rows. Without this, the specific dimensions of the data cannot be confirmed.
Fields have exclusive units. Traceability must fully retain unit information to prevent data confusion.
Some research reports require proxy access. Traceability links must adapt to proxy rules to ensure users can jump to the original document normally.
Configuration Settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
recall_top_k | Top 10 entries | White home appliance research report data has multiple dimensions. This value sufficiently recalls core data while avoiding redundancy |
context_window | 8000–12000 characters | Research reports include long paragraphs and multi-column tables. This range preserves full context for cited passages |
source_retrieval_enable | Enabled | Enforces association between search results and specific locations in original research reports, meeting traceability requirements |
table_parse_strategy | Split by cell | White home appliance research report tables have clear fields. Splitting by cell enables accurate positioning of cited specific data items |
source_url_proxy | Proxy via original path | Adapts to nginx proxy configurations, preventing cross-domain access issues with original links |
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS | 300 seconds | Research reports include multi-page tables and attached charts, leading to longer parsing times |
The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material format, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis. It is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.
Three Common Mistakes
- Phenomenon: The
sourcefield returned by the question answering API is empty. Cause: Thesource_retrieval_enableconfiguration is not enabled, and the traceability function is not turned on. - Phenomenon: The original document link in the knowledge base cannot be accessed after nginx proxying, returning 403 or 404 errors. Cause: The
source_url_proxyis not configured to proxy via original path. Directly jumping to the original URL causes cross-domain issues or the proxy rule does not cover the knowledge base file path. - Phenomenon: The question answering API returns a 200 status code, but the
contentfield is empty. Cause: Thecontext_windowconfiguration value is too small. The complete cited passage of the research report is truncated, so valid answer content cannot be generated.
How to Confirm Configuration Is Correct
- Submit a test query containing specific white home appliance data. Check whether the
sourcefield is included in the returned results. - Click the citation link in the returned results. Verify that you can jump to the original research report document normally.
- Check the knowledge base parsing logs. Confirm that the research report tables are split according to the preset strategy, and there are no parsing timeout errors.
- Adjust the
recall_top_kconfiguration value. Check whether the number of returned citation sources matches the configured value.
