ai-technology · 2026-04-30

A study from arXiv (2604.25924) proposes a virtual assistant using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to help Maastricht University students navigate project-specific regulations. The system integrates up-to-date domain-specific knowledge to improve accuracy and reduce hallucinations, addressing challenges in specialized content domains. Evaluation through real-life testing shows the assistant effectively meets student needs.
