GPU Data Science Tutor - Self-Corrective RAG System

A comprehensive Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system specifically designed for GPU-accelerated data science education. The system combines web documentation, Jupyter notebooks, and Python code examples to provide accurate, well-cited responses about CUDA programming, RAPIDS, PyTorch, TensorFlow, and other GPU computing frameworks.

🚀 Features

🔍 Multi-Source Knowledge Base

• Loads 90+ GPU data science URLs from CSV
• Integrates Jupyter notebooks (.ipynb) and Python files (.py)
• Supports mixed citation formats for different source types

🧠 Self-Corrective RAG Pipeline

• Enhanced Retrieval: Multi-attempt document retrieval with relevance grading
• Hallucination Detection: Validates responses against source material
• Answer Quality Assessment: Ensures responses adequately address questions
• Automatic Regeneration: Improves responses through iterative refinement
• Verified Sources: Cites the sources used in content creation from the knowledge base

📚 Intelligent Citation System

• Numbered citations [1], [2], [3] with proper source attribution
• Reference validation to prevent hallucinated sources
• Automatic reference section generation

💬 Conversation Management

• Chat history tracking for follow-up questions
• Context-aware response generation
• Document exclusion to prevent repetitive retrievals
