Knowledge Base Retrieval and Recall for Textile Manufacturing Financial Report Analysis

Textile manufacturing financial report and industry data mainly comes from public periodic reports of domestic and overseas stock exchanges, and

What the data for this category looks like

Textile manufacturing financial report and industry data mainly comes from public periodic reports of domestic and overseas stock exchanges, and monthly production and sales statistics documents released by industry associations. Data update rhythm follows the disclosure rules of regulatory authorities. Annual reports are released within four months after the end of the year, semi-annual reports are released within two months after the end of the first half of the year, and monthly production and sales data is updated monthly. Document structure includes three modules: core financial indicators, core production data, and supply chain related data. Fields involve revenue, unit production cost, inventory turnover days, yarn count, fabric gram weight, capacity utilization rate, etc. Units include RMB yuan, ton, meter, square meter, etc.

The textile manufacturing category has high density of specialized terminology, including yarn count, fabric gram weight and other domain-specific words. This requires the retrieval logic to accurately match professional expressions, to avoid irrelevant content being mixed in due to vague recall. Different types of data have different update frequencies. Monthly production and sales data need high-frequency synchronization, while annual financial report data is updated quarterly. This requires the knowledge base to be managed in partitions according to data update cycles, to ensure the timeliness of retrieval results. Documents are long with many field dimensions, and context association must be retained during segmentation. Otherwise, the complete logic of indicators such as unit consumption and capacity utilization rate will be damaged. In addition, some data includes unit information, and retrieval results must retain units to ensure the accuracy of subsequent analysis.

How to set the configuration

Configuration ItemRecommended ApproachBasis for This Approach
chunkSize800–1200 charactersLong paragraphs of production data exist in textile manufacturing financial reports. Appropriately lengthening segmentation can retain the integrity of professional logic such as unit consumption and capacity
similarityThreshold0.75–0.85Specialized terminology in textile manufacturing has high recognition. A higher threshold can filter irrelevant general financial content and avoid recalling redundant information
recallTopKTop 8 entriesFinancial report data has many fields. A sufficient recall volume is needed to cover indicators of different dimensions, while avoiding excessive content exceeding the model's context limit
rerankTopKTop 3 entriesThe most relevant core data must be retained. Reranking can ensure that retrieval results focus on the specific financial report chapter of the user's query
knowledgeBaseSyncCycleDaily synchronizationMonthly production and sales data are updated monthly. Daily synchronization can ensure that the latest industry data is included in the knowledge base in a timely manner, while avoiding excessive synchronization frequency occupying resources
parseChunkOverlap100–150 charactersContext association of specialized terms must be retained after segmentation, to avoid missing definitions of terms such as unit consumption and count after splitting

The parameter values provided on this page are all conventional recommendations used to determine the starting point for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume and business rules. Specific issues require specific analysis, and it is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing.

Three common mistakes

  • Phenomenon: Mathematical formulas embedded in the knowledge base (such as gross profit margin calculation formulas, unit consumption calculation formulas) cannot be displayed normally, only garbled characters or text fragments are shown. Cause: Exclusive configuration for formula parsing is not enabled, and the default segmentation logic does not retain the LaTeX syntax structure of the formula, resulting in lost format during parsing.
  • Phenomenon: After calling the knowledge base with a locally deployed model, the number and content of results returned by the same query vary each time. Cause: The recall similarity threshold is not fixed, or the fixed random seed for reranking is not enabled, resulting in deviations in the candidate set recalled each time.
  • Phenomenon: When calling the knowledge base, relevant answers for corresponding fields cannot be extracted from the full financial report data table, or the specified column cannot be used as a retrieval index. Cause: Field-level retrieval mapping is not configured, and when importing full table data directly, the columns to be indexed are not specified, resulting in the retrieval scope covering irrelevant fields.

How to confirm the configuration is complete

  • Upload a segment of a publicly available textile manufacturing financial report, use the knowledge base preview function to view the segmented content, and confirm that the structure of specialized terms and formulas is complete.
  • Initiate a query containing specialized terms, check whether the number of recalled results matches the configured recallTopK value, and the reranked results focus on the target indicator.
  • Verify whether the results returned by the same query initiated at different times are consistent, and confirm that the recall logic does not introduce random deviations.
  • Check the knowledge base synchronization log to confirm that the latest industry data has been successfully synchronized, and the update cycle meets the configuration requirements.
