Project Lynx: AI for more accessible public information

About the session

How can artificial intelligence make public information easier to access?

At this demonstration event, imaxin presented Lynx, a solution based on artificial intelligence and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques that allows public information to be queried in natural language.

The session covered how this technology works, the challenges involved in developing a reliable intelligent assistant, and the potential applications of Lynx in public administration and the media.

 

Contents

  • RAG systems and public information
    An introduction to how Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems work and how they can be applied to make it easier to search large volumes of information.
  • The challenges of a reliable intelligent assistant
    What it takes to build a system capable of providing answers based on public information, and which aspects must be taken into account to ensure its reliability.
  • Presenting Lynx
    An overview of the state of the project, the technologies used and the possibilities it offers for searching information from public sources.
  • Practical demonstration
    A live demonstration of the Lynx prototype through queries on the Official Journal of Galicia (DOG).

About Lynx

Lynx is a solution based on artificial intelligence and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques that makes public information easier to access and search.

The system is designed to work with sources such as official gazettes, regulations and news content, allowing users to make queries in natural language and access information in a clearer and more precise way.

The solution is aimed at citizens, public employees and media professionals, and seeks to explore new ways of using artificial intelligence to improve access to public content.

 

Media coverage

The presentation of Lynx was covered by several media outlets, including La Voz de Galicia, Código Cero and Ulises Galicia.

 

Funding

Lynx is one of the initiatives supported by Igape's IA360 call for proposals, with funding from the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan – NextGenerationEU.

This operation is 25% co-financed by the Galician regional government's own funds and 75% financed by funds from the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), under the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU, within component 16, the National Artificial Intelligence Strategy (ENIA).
