Agentic-RAG — Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Semantic Kernel
** GitHub Repository:** Agentic-RAG
Project Overview
Tech Stack: Jupyter Notebook, Python, Semantic Kernel, ChromaDB
About: Agentic RAG demonstrates the use of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with Semantic Kernel and ChromaDB. The project showcases how to build an AI agent that retrieves travel documents, augments user queries with semantic search, and streams detailed travel recommendations. It is designed to show real-world RAG applications, especially in the travel domain.
