ZeroPal is a demonstration project for a question-answering system for LightZero based on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Zero represents LightZero, and Pal represents a companion.

• It utilizes large language models such as Kimi and GPT-4 in conjunction with a document retrieval vector database like Weaviate to respond to user queries by retrieving relevant document contexts and leveraging the generative capabilities of the language model.
• The project also includes a web-based interactive application built with Gradio and rag_demo.py.

• Supports loading OpenAI API keys via environment variables.
• Facilitates loading local documents and splitting them into chunks.
• Allows for the creation of a vector store and the conversion of document chunks into vectors for storage in Weaviate.
• Sets up a Retrieval-Augmented Generation process, combining document retrieval and language model generation to answer user questions.
• Executes queries and prints results, with the option to use the RAG process or not.

• Creates a Gradio application where users can input questions and the application employs the Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) model to find answers, displaying results within the interface.
• Retrieved contexts are highlighted in the Markdown document to help users understand the source of the answers. The application interface is divided into two sections: the top for Q&A and the bottom to display the contexts referred to by the RAG model.

1. Clone the project to your local machine.
2. Install dependencies.

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

3. Create a .env file in the project root directory and add your OpenAI API key:

OPENAI_API_KEY='your API key'
QUESTION_LANG='cn' # The language of the question, currently available option is 'cn'

4. Ensure you have available documents as context or use the commented-out code snippet to download the documents you want to reference.
5. Run the python3 -u rag_demo.py file to test ZeroPal on the local command line.
6. Run the python3 -u app_mqa_database.py file to test ZeroPal on a local web page.

    print("=" * 40)
