Voice Annotation and Transcription Operations Duty and Internal Work Order Q&A: Knowledge Base Retrieval and Recall

Data for this category typically comes from audio lists exported from annotation platforms, raw audio files, custom proprietary vocabularies, spot

What this category of data looks like

Data for this category typically comes from audio lists exported from annotation platforms, raw audio files, custom proprietary vocabularies, spot check quality inspection reports, and speaker annotation forms. Daily business documents include transcription specifications, batch audio delivery lists, and single-item quality inspection result tables. Data updates are synced daily or per annotation task batch. Core fields include audio duration (usually tens of seconds to tens of minutes), speaker identifiers, transcribed text segments, and quality inspection check marks. There is no unified fixed unit, and values are adjusted per annotation task batch.

The data update frequency for this category is adjusted per annotation task batch. This requires knowledge base retrieval to support incremental synchronization, avoiding full reconstruction that consumes excessive computing resources. Daily business documents include transcription specifications and proprietary vocabularies. Retrieval must prioritize recalling content related to professional terms and annotation rules, to assist with time-consuming tasks such as noise segment judgment and speaker differentiation. Core fields include speaker identifiers and quality inspection marks. Retrieval must support filtering results by business dimension, ensuring returned content matches the current annotation task scenario. The mixed structure of audio metadata and transcribed text also requires retrieval configuration to balance text semantic matching and structured field filtering.

How to configure the settings

The following configurations are based on FastGPT v4.17.0.

Configuration ItemSuggested ValueBasis for This Setting
similarity0.72–0.85Semantic similarity threshold for matching voice annotation proprietary terms and transcription specifications, covering conventional terms and scenario-based expressions
limitTop 8 entriesControls the number of returned results, adapting to the concise, fast query needs of operations duty and work order Q&A
searchModeSemantic RetrievalPrioritizes matching semantic association between transcribed text and specifications, while also accounting for keyword matches
usingReRankEnabledReranks initial recalled results to improve ranking priority of content related to proprietary term proofreading
datasetSearchUsingExtensionQueryEnabledAutomatically expands query terms to cover synonyms and common expressions in annotation scenarios
collectionIdsConfigured per task groupBinds knowledge base collections corresponding to the current annotation task, avoiding interference from cross-task content

Three common mistakes

  • Phenomenon: Retrieval results from the platform test page differ from those returned by API calls. Cause: The latest index configuration of the knowledge base has not been synchronized, or the collectionIds parameter configuration differs between the test environment and production environment.
  • Phenomenon: The number of retrieved results does not match the configured limit. Cause: Confusing the parameter logic between initial recall count and final returned result count, failing to correctly match the configuration item with actual needs.
  • Phenomenon: Retrieval results include transcription specification content from non-current tasks. Cause: The collectionIds is not configured to bind the knowledge base collection corresponding to the current annotation task, resulting in the retrieval scope covering all available datasets.

How to confirm the configuration is correct

  • Enter the knowledge base management page, verify whether collectionIds is bound to the knowledge base collection corresponding to the current annotation task.
  • Initiate a test query to confirm that the number of returned results matches the configured limit value.
  • Check whether the retrieval results include core business documents such as transcription specifications and proprietary vocabularies, and whether the ranking meets expectations.
  • View retrieval time consumption logs, confirm that single retrieval time consumption meets the requirements of the business scenario. Adjust the configuration of similarity or usingReRank to optimize as needed.
