3 answers are correct. Hard

Show answer

Answer

  • C Use hierarchical chunking
  • D Introduce overlap between chunks
  • E Split at paragraph boundaries instead of fixed length

Explanation

Overlap, semantic chunking along content boundaries and hierarchical chunking keep related content together. Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases offers fixed sizes with overlap as well as hierarchical and semantic strategies. Temperature does not affect retrieval, and one-word chunks lose all context.
