Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in various language tasks but they often generate incorrect information, a phenomenon known as "hallucinations". Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) aims to mitigate this by using document retrieval for accurate responses. However, RAG still faces hallucinations due to vague queries. This study aims to improve RAG by optimizing query generation with a query-document alignment score, refining queries using LLMs for better precision and efficiency of document retrieval. Experiments have shown that our approach improves document retrieval, resulting in an average accuracy gain of 1.6%.
