Cost-Efficient RAG for Entity Matching with LLMs: A Blocking-based Exploration

2026-02-05 · Chuangtao Ma, Zeyu Zhang, Arijit Khan, Sebastian Schelter, Paul Groth arxiv

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enhances LLM reasoning in knowledge-intensive tasks, but existing RAG pipelines incur substantial retrieval and generation overhead when applied to large-scale entity matching. To address this limitation, we introduce CE-RAG4EM, a cost-efficient RAG architecture that reduces computation through blocking-based batch retrieval and generation. We also present a unified framework for analyzing and evaluating RAG systems for entity matching, focusing on blocking-aware optimizations and retrieval granularity. Extensive experiments suggest that CE-RAG4EM can achieve comparable or improved matching quality while substantially reducing end-to-end runtime relative to strong baselines. Our analysis further reveals that key configuration parameters introduce an inherent trade-off between performance and overhead, offering practical guidance for designing efficient and scalable RAG systems for entity matching and data integration.

Deep learning for blocking in entity matching: a design space exploration

2021-07-01 · Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment 2021 7 · Saravanan Thirumuruganathan, Han Li, Nan Tang, Mourad Ouzzani 외

Entity matching (EM) finds data instances that refer to the same real-world entity. Most EM solutions perform blocking then matching. Many works have applied deep learning (DL) to matching, but far fewer works have appli…

Blocking is a major task in entity matching. Numerous blocking solutions have been developed, but as far as we can tell, blocking using the well-known tf/idf measure has received virtually no attention. Yet, when we expe…
