Abstract

MOTIVATION: LLMs like GPT-4, despite their advancements, often produce hallucinations and struggle with integrating external knowledge effectively. While Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) attempts to address this by incorporating external information, it faces significant challenges such as context length limitations and imprecise vector similarity search. ESCARGOT aims to overcome these issues by combining LLMs with a dynamic Graph of Thoughts and biomedical knowledge graphs, improving output reliability, and reducing hallucinations.
