This study presents a novel methodology designed to enhance the performance and effectiveness of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) by utilizing Large Language Models (LLMs) to eliminate irrelevant content at the sentence level from retrieved documents. This approach refines the content of passages exclusively through LLMs, avoiding the need for additional training or data, with the goal of improving the performance in knowledge-intensive tasks. The proposed method was tested in an open-domain question answering (QA) environment, where it demonstrated its ability to effectively remove unnecessary content and outperform over traditional RAG methods. Overall, our approach has proven effective in enhancing performance compared to conventional RAG techniques and has shown the capability to improve RAG's accuracy in a zero-shot setting without requiring additional training data.

Thermal power generation is a power generation method that occupies a large proportion in Korea and abroad due to its low unit price. However, due to its disadvantage of emitting large amounts of harmful substances that can cause health and environmental problems, renewable energy is in the spotlight as an alternative power source. Among various renewable energy generation methods, solar power generation is receiving the most attention because of its advantages such as ease in maintenance. Various solar power generation forecasting studies are being conducted to improve the uncertainty of volatile solar power generation and ensure stability in power supply. However, existing studies have limitations in that they are only applicable when there is a sufficient amount of historical power generation data. Therefore, this paper proposes a solar power generation efficiency prediction method based on zero-shot learning that utilizes historical data of similar regions by concerning weather similarity to solve the cold-start problem, a problem that occurs in prediction when historical data in the target region are lacking. Comparison results revealed that the proposed method had better performance overall in the target area, with a one-hour-based method showing the best prediction performance among other criteria.
