TrustRAG: Blockchain-Enhanced RAG via Committee-Based Credibility Scoring

A research paper proposes using blockchain technology to verify the trustworthiness of documents retrieved in RAG systems by implementing a committee-based credibility scoring mechanism. This addresses the challenge of ensuring retrieved information has not been tampered with and comes from reliable sources, especially critical for high-stakes applications.
