RAG accuracy jumped from 10% to 60% when I added outcome scoring

What is this kind of blog post? It is like advertising only, with urgent "install this code now" talk at the end. Impolite at best.. not great front page material IMHO
roampal•1mo ago
Fair point, the install instructions at the end were meant as a "here's how to try it if interested" but I can see how it reads as pushy. The core of the post is about the outcome scoring approach itself. Should've led with more depth on the methodology. Thanks for the feedback.
udfalkso•1mo ago
It’s not pushy at all imo
ramenlover•1mo ago
How did you measure the 60% improvement rate?
roampal•1mo ago
Ran a 4-way comparison test across 200 query-memory pairs:

- Baseline RAG (embedding similarity only): 10%

- RAG + reranker: 20%

- Outcomes only (no reranker): 60%

- RAG + outcome scoring (mature memories with 20+ uses): 60%

"Accuracy" = correct memory ranked #1 for the query. The outcome scoring uses Wilson score lower bound - memories that consistently get positive feedback from the "user" get boosted, ones that fail get demoted.

Test methodology: https://github.com/roampal-ai/roampal/blob/main/dev/benchmar...

> When I say "thanks, that worked," that memory gets promoted. When I say "no, that's wrong," it gets demoted. … > No manual tagging.

I think this is also a kind of tagging.

roampal•1mo ago
You're right, it is a form of tagging technically. The difference is you're already saying "thanks that worked" or "nah that's wrong" anyway. No extra step, it just listens.
