Genquest Rag

Genquest Rag is a question-generation application that retrieves relevant information from Wikipedia and uses retrieval-augmented generation with a Weaviate vector store to create context-aware, answer-aware questions.

Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use Genquest Rag when questions should be tied to retrieved Wikipedia context or to a specific answer within a passage, rather than generated without source context.

Who it is for

  • Learners and educators creating questions grounded in reference material.
  • Content creators who need questions tied to specific passages and answers.
  • Researchers exploring question generation over retrieved knowledge.

Documented uses

  • Generate questions from relevant passages retrieved from Wikipedia.
  • Create questions whose intended answer is a marked span in a supplied passage.
  • Explore a retrieval-and-generation workflow using Weaviate and language models.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

  • The project combines Wikipedia retrieval and a Weaviate vector store with question generation; the model pipeline example is also documented separately.
  • The README identifies a Python-based stack including PyTorch, Transformers, Datasets, Evaluate, LangChain and Weaviate.
  • A Streamlit demo and a Hugging Face model card are linked from the repository.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Generate a question from an answer-marked passage

Use the documented Transformers pipeline pattern to prompt the question-generation model with context and a highlighted answer.

Before you start

  • Python environment with the Transformers package and the dependencies required by the model pipeline.
  • A passage and an answer span appearing in that passage.
  • The Hugging Face model identifier shown in the README: mohammedaly22/t5-small-squad-qg.

Steps

  1. Mark the answer span in the passage using the documented delimiters.

  2. Format an instruction asking the model to generate a question for the highlighted answer, with the passage as context.

  3. Load the model with a Transformers text2text-generation pipeline.

  4. Pass the formatted prompt to the pipeline; the README example requests three outputs.

Expected outcome

A set of candidate questions grounded in the supplied passage and aimed at the marked answer.

Guide limitations

  • This is a documented high-level pipeline example, not a complete guide to setting up the full application or its Weaviate-backed retrieval workflow.
  • The README’s code example does not provide a full dependency installation procedure.
