Disclaimer: This implementation of GraphRAG is inspired by the paper From Local to Global: A Graph RAG Approach to Query-Focused Summarization by Darren Edge et. al. The code is not entirely similar to the paper’s codebase, though the prompts for certain tasks are taken from the paper’s codebase.
This is the second blog in a multi-part blog series series about GraphRAG. In this blog series, our goal is to achieve the following,
Understand the fundamentals of GraphRAGThe need for GraphRAG: GraphRAG vs. Semantic/Keyword-based RAGImplement GraphRAG components from scratch in PythonApply GraphRAG for Content-Based Movie Recommendation: “GraphRAG4Reccomendation”Use GPT-4o-Mini for creating the graph and providing recommendations
We will achieve the following output by the end of this multi-part blog series.
