概述

在这个教程中,我们将使用LangGraph构建一个检索智能体。 LangChain 提供了内置的 智能体 实现,使用 LangGraph 原语实现。如果需要更深入的定制,可以直接在 LangGraph 中实现智能体。本指南演示了一个检索智能体的示例实现。检索 智能体在您希望大型语言模型决定是否从向量存储中检索上下文或直接响应用户时非常有用。 到教程结束时,我们将完成以下内容:
  1. 获取并预处理用于检索的文档。
  2. 对这些文档进行索引以支持语义搜索,并为智能体创建检索工具。
  3. 构建一个智能体RAG系统,该系统能够决定何时使用检索工具。

概念

我们将介绍以下概念:

安装

让我们下载所需的软件包并设置我们的API密钥:
pip install -U langgraph "langchain[openai]" langchain-community langchain-text-splitters bs4
import getpass
import os


def _set_env(key: str):
    if key not in os.environ:
        os.environ[key] = getpass.getpass(f"{key}:")


_set_env("OPENAI_API_KEY")

1. 预处理文档

  1. 从我们的RAG系统中获取文档。我们将使用Lilian Weng的优秀博客中最近的三页。我们将首先使用WebBaseLoader实用工具获取页面内容:
from langchain_community.document_loaders import WebBaseLoader

urls = [
    "https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2024-11-28-reward-hacking/",
    "https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2024-07-07-hallucination/",
    "https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2024-04-12-diffusion-video/",
]

docs = [WebBaseLoader(url).load() for url in urls]
docs[0][0].page_content.strip()[:1000]
  1. 将获取的文档分割成更小的块以便索引到我们的向量存储中:
from langchain_text_splitters import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter

docs_list = [item for sublist in docs for item in sublist]

text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter.from_tiktoken_encoder(
    chunk_size=100, chunk_overlap=50
)
doc_splits = text_splitter.split_documents(docs_list)
doc_splits[0].page_content.strip()

2. 创建检索工具

现在我们已经将文档分割好了,我们可以将它们索引到我们将用于语义搜索的向量存储中。
  1. 使用内存向量存储和OpenAI嵌入:
from langchain_core.vectorstores import InMemoryVectorStore
from langchain_openai import OpenAIEmbeddings

vectorstore = InMemoryVectorStore.from_documents(
    documents=doc_splits, embedding=OpenAIEmbeddings()
)
retriever = vectorstore.as_retriever()
  1. 使用LangChain预构建的create_retriever_tool创建检索工具:
from langchain_classic.tools.retriever import create_retriever_tool

retriever_tool = create_retriever_tool(
    retriever,
    "retrieve_blog_posts",
    "Search and return information about Lilian Weng blog posts.",
)
  1. 测试工具:
retriever_tool.invoke({"query": "types of reward hacking"})

3. 生成查询

现在我们将开始构建我们的智能体RAG图组件(节点)。 请注意,组件将在MessagesState——包含具有聊天消息列表的键的图状态上运行。
  1. 构建一个 generate_query_or_respond 节点。它将调用一个LLM(大型语言模型)根据当前图状态(消息列表)生成响应。给定输入消息,它将决定使用检索工具检索,还是直接响应用户。请注意,我们通过 .bind_tools 给聊天模型访问我们之前创建的 retriever_tool
from langgraph.graph import MessagesState
from langchain.chat_models import init_chat_model

response_model = init_chat_model("openai:gpt-4o", temperature=0)


def generate_query_or_respond(state: MessagesState):
    """Call the model to generate a response based on the current state. Given
    the question, it will decide to retrieve using the retriever tool, or simply respond to the user.
    """
    response = (
        response_model
        .bind_tools([retriever_tool]).invoke(state["messages"])  
    )
    return {"messages": [response]}
  1. 在一个随机输入上尝试:
input = {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "hello!"}]}
generate_query_or_respond(input)["messages"][-1].pretty_print()
输出:
================================== Ai Message ==================================

Hello! How can I help you today?
  1. 提出一个需要语义搜索的问题:
input = {
    "messages": [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "What does Lilian Weng say about types of reward hacking?",
        }
    ]
}
generate_query_or_respond(input)["messages"][-1].pretty_print()
输出:
================================== Ai Message ==================================
Tool Calls:
retrieve_blog_posts (call_tYQxgfIlnQUDMdtAhdbXNwIM)
Call ID: call_tYQxgfIlnQUDMdtAhdbXNwIM
Args:
    query: types of reward hacking

4. 评估文档

  1. 添加一个条件边grade_documents — 以确定检索到的文档是否与问题相关。我们将使用一个具有结构化输出模式的模型 GradeDocuments 对文档进行评分。grade_documents 函数将根据评分决策返回要访问的节点名称 (generate_answerrewrite_question):
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import Literal

GRADE_PROMPT = (
    "You are a grader assessing relevance of a retrieved document to a user question. \n "
    "Here is the retrieved document: \n\n {context} \n\n"
    "Here is the user question: {question} \n"
    "If the document contains keyword(s) or semantic meaning related to the user question, grade it as relevant. \n"
    "Give a binary score 'yes' or 'no' score to indicate whether the document is relevant to the question."
)


class GradeDocuments(BaseModel):  
    """Grade documents using a binary score for relevance check."""

    binary_score: str = Field(
        description="Relevance score: 'yes' if relevant, or 'no' if not relevant"
    )


grader_model = init_chat_model("openai:gpt-4o", temperature=0)


def grade_documents(
    state: MessagesState,
) -> Literal["generate_answer", "rewrite_question"]:
    """Determine whether the retrieved documents are relevant to the question."""
    question = state["messages"][0].content
    context = state["messages"][-1].content

    prompt = GRADE_PROMPT.format(question=question, context=context)
    response = (
        grader_model
        .with_structured_output(GradeDocuments).invoke(  
            [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
        )
    )
    score = response.binary_score

    if score == "yes":
        return "generate_answer"
    else:
        return "rewrite_question"
  1. 在工具响应中使用不相关的文档运行此操作:
from langchain_core.messages import convert_to_messages

input = {
    "messages": convert_to_messages(
        [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "What does Lilian Weng say about types of reward hacking?",
            },
            {
                "role": "assistant",
                "content": "",
                "tool_calls": [
                    {
                        "id": "1",
                        "name": "retrieve_blog_posts",
                        "args": {"query": "types of reward hacking"},
                    }
                ],
            },
            {"role": "tool", "content": "meow", "tool_call_id": "1"},
        ]
    )
}
grade_documents(input)
  1. 确认相关文档被分类为相关类别:
input = {
    "messages": convert_to_messages(
        [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "What does Lilian Weng say about types of reward hacking?",
            },
            {
                "role": "assistant",
                "content": "",
                "tool_calls": [
                    {
                        "id": "1",
                        "name": "retrieve_blog_posts",
                        "args": {"query": "types of reward hacking"},
                    }
                ],
            },
            {
                "role": "tool",
                "content": "reward hacking can be categorized into two types: environment or goal misspecification, and reward tampering",
                "tool_call_id": "1",
            },
        ]
    )
}
grade_documents(input)

5. 重新编写问题

  1. 构建 rewrite_question 节点。检索工具可能会返回一些可能不相关的文档,这表明需要改进原始用户问题。为此,我们将调用 rewrite_question 节点:
REWRITE_PROMPT = (
    "Look at the input and try to reason about the underlying semantic intent / meaning.\n"
    "Here is the initial question:"
    "\n ------- \n"
    "{question}"
    "\n ------- \n"
    "Formulate an improved question:"
)


def rewrite_question(state: MessagesState):
    """Rewrite the original user question."""
    messages = state["messages"]
    question = messages[0].content
    prompt = REWRITE_PROMPT.format(question=question)
    response = response_model.invoke([{"role": "user", "content": prompt}])
    return {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": response.content}]}
  1. 尝试以下操作:
input = {
    "messages": convert_to_messages(
        [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "What does Lilian Weng say about types of reward hacking?",
            },
            {
                "role": "assistant",
                "content": "",
                "tool_calls": [
                    {
                        "id": "1",
                        "name": "retrieve_blog_posts",
                        "args": {"query": "types of reward hacking"},
                    }
                ],
            },
            {"role": "tool", "content": "meow", "tool_call_id": "1"},
        ]
    )
}

response = rewrite_question(input)
print(response["messages"][-1]["content"])
输出:
What are the different types of reward hacking described by Lilian Weng, and how does she explain them?

6. 生成答案

  1. 构建 generate_answer 节点:如果我们通过了评分器的检查,我们可以根据原始问题和检索到的上下文生成最终答案:
GENERATE_PROMPT = (
    "You are an assistant for question-answering tasks. "
    "Use the following pieces of retrieved context to answer the question. "
    "If you don't know the answer, just say that you don't know. "
    "Use three sentences maximum and keep the answer concise.\n"
    "Question: {question} \n"
    "Context: {context}"
)


def generate_answer(state: MessagesState):
    """Generate an answer."""
    question = state["messages"][0].content
    context = state["messages"][-1].content
    prompt = GENERATE_PROMPT.format(question=question, context=context)
    response = response_model.invoke([{"role": "user", "content": prompt}])
    return {"messages": [response]}
  1. 尝试一下:
input = {
    "messages": convert_to_messages(
        [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "What does Lilian Weng say about types of reward hacking?",
            },
            {
                "role": "assistant",
                "content": "",
                "tool_calls": [
                    {
                        "id": "1",
                        "name": "retrieve_blog_posts",
                        "args": {"query": "types of reward hacking"},
                    }
                ],
            },
            {
                "role": "tool",
                "content": "reward hacking can be categorized into two types: environment or goal misspecification, and reward tampering",
                "tool_call_id": "1",
            },
        ]
    )
}

response = generate_answer(input)
response["messages"][-1].pretty_print()
输出:
================================== Ai Message ==================================

Lilian Weng categorizes reward hacking into two types: environment or goal misspecification, and reward tampering. She considers reward hacking as a broad concept that includes both of these categories. Reward hacking occurs when an agent exploits flaws or ambiguities in the reward function to achieve high rewards without performing the intended behaviors.

7. 组装图

现在我们将所有节点和边组装成一个完整的图:
  • 从一个 generate_query_or_respond 开始,并确定是否需要调用 retriever_tool
  • 使用 tools_condition 路由到下一步:
    • 如果 generate_query_or_respond 返回 tool_calls,则调用 retriever_tool 来检索上下文
    • 否则,直接响应用户
  • 对检索到的文档内容进行评分,以确定其与问题的相关性 (grade_documents),并将其路由到下一步:
    • 如果不相关,使用 rewrite_question 重新编写问题,然后再次调用 generate_query_or_respond
    • 如果相关,继续到 generate_answer 并使用检索到的文档上下文通过 ToolMessage 生成最终响应
from langgraph.graph import StateGraph, START, END
from langgraph.prebuilt import ToolNode, tools_condition

workflow = StateGraph(MessagesState)

# Define the nodes we will cycle between
workflow.add_node(generate_query_or_respond)
workflow.add_node("retrieve", ToolNode([retriever_tool]))
workflow.add_node(rewrite_question)
workflow.add_node(generate_answer)

workflow.add_edge(START, "generate_query_or_respond")

# Decide whether to retrieve
workflow.add_conditional_edges(
    "generate_query_or_respond",
    # Assess LLM decision (call `retriever_tool` tool or respond to the user)
    tools_condition,
    {
        # Translate the condition outputs to nodes in our graph
        "tools": "retrieve",
        END: END,
    },
)

# Edges taken after the `action` node is called.
workflow.add_conditional_edges(
    "retrieve",
    # Assess agent decision
    grade_documents,
)
workflow.add_edge("generate_answer", END)
workflow.add_edge("rewrite_question", "generate_query_or_respond")

# Compile
graph = workflow.compile()

8. 运行智能体RAG

现在让我们通过运行一个问题来测试完整的图。
for chunk in graph.stream(
    {
        "messages": [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "What does Lilian Weng say about types of reward hacking?",
            }
        ]
    }
):
    for node, update in chunk.items():
        print("Update from node", node)
        update["messages"][-1].pretty_print()
        print("\n\n")
输出:
Update from node generate_query_or_respond
================================== Ai Message ==================================
Tool Calls:
  retrieve_blog_posts (call_NYu2vq4km9nNNEFqJwefWKu1)
 Call ID: call_NYu2vq4km9nNNEFqJwefWKu1
  Args:
    query: types of reward hacking



Update from node retrieve
================================= Tool Message ==================================
Name: retrieve_blog_posts

(Note: Some work defines reward tampering as a distinct category of misalignment behavior from reward hacking. But I consider reward hacking as a broader concept here.)
At a high level, reward hacking can be categorized into two types: environment or goal misspecification, and reward tampering.

Why does Reward Hacking Exist?#

Pan et al. (2022) investigated reward hacking as a function of agent capabilities, including (1) model size, (2) action space resolution, (3) observation space noise, and (4) training time. They also proposed a taxonomy of three types of misspecified proxy rewards:

Let's Define Reward Hacking#
Reward shaping in RL is challenging. Reward hacking occurs when an RL agent exploits flaws or ambiguities in the reward function to obtain high rewards without genuinely learning the intended behaviors or completing the task as designed. In recent years, several related concepts have been proposed, all referring to some form of reward hacking:
