LightRAGlightrag.github.ioLightRAG is a retrieval-augmented generation framework that enhances LLMs by integrating graph structures into text indexing and retrieval for more accurate, context-aware responses. It uses a two-level retrieval approach and graph-enhanced extraction to build a knowledge graph from documents, with node-edge representations and key-value indexing to enable fast, multi-hop information access and precise retrieval. It supports incremental updates to the knowledge base, merging new graph data with existing structures to adapt quickly to evolving data, with experiments showing improved retrieval accuracy and efficiency over traditional RAG methods.
