Rerank with Conversation History
thisguyknowsai · x · 2026-07-11
This covers Technique 3: Context-Aware Reranking.
Common practice is to retrieve top-10 chunks and feed them all to the model. The improvement here uses a lightweight reranker that scores chunks based on full conversation history rather than just the current query. Content contradicting prior context is downweighted, while content continuing the context is upweighted.
The author claims this reduces contradictions in final output by 28%.
