arXiv:2609.36326v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) hands the user's query to whoever hosts the corpus. We propose PILLAR, a Privacy-Preserving RAG (PPRAG) system based on Private…
arXiv:2609.37426v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern vision-language models (VLMs) have shown promising results in long-video understanding due to the rich semantic information they can capture. However, most…
arXiv:2609.37171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation has established itself as a fundamental framework in natural language processing, seamlessly integrating information retrieval with the…
arXiv:2606.24937v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Hitchhiker's Guide to Agentic AI is a comprehensive practitioner's reference for building autonomous AI systems, covering the full stack from first…
arXiv:2607.26621v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong reasoning capabilities, motivating their use as the backbone of foundation recommendation models (FRMs). Existing…
arXiv:2609.36534v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dense retrievers decide which documents reach users and the language models that use them, yet they are typically evaluated with neutral queries. We ask whether the…
arXiv:2609.36082v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce GeoOutageBench, a benchmark for assessing LLM-based geospatiotemporal KGQA for multimodal outage and resilience analysis. Unlike existing KGQA benchmarks…
arXiv:2609.37468v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) interleaves reasoning with repeated retrieval, giving the retriever influence over both the evidence an agent observes and…
arXiv:2607.24786v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Weak supervision sets a practical regime for audio-visual sound source localization as dense spatial annotations are costly to obtain at scale. The task, however,…
arXiv:2609.35783v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large-scale recommender systems, particularly short-form video platforms, are often bottlenecked by massive popularity feedback loops. In such environments, as models…
arXiv:2608.10441v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as costly, on-demand components in real systems, but calling them indiscriminately can waste substantial…
arXiv:2609.38021v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We evaluate an auditable long-term memory system on LongMemEval-S. Its retrieval chain uses hybrid candidate retrieval, cross-encoder reranking, coverage-first packet…
arXiv:2609.35774v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern RAG pipelines stack many enhancement features, but these features are typically validated in isolation, leaving their interactions unmeasured. We run a 2^4 full…
arXiv:2501.03598v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Knowledge graphs have proven successful in integrating heterogeneous data across various domains. However, there remains a noticeable dearth of research on their…
arXiv:2609.37993v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The BITEM team entered both subtasks of the NTCIR-19 R2C2 task with a single agentic pipeline, in which a model searches, reads and records evidence over a movie corpus…
arXiv:2609.37574v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used to enrich user queries in information retrieval (IR) so that a standard retriever such as BM25 can bridge vocabulary…
arXiv:2609.35773v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) defenses typically decide how to filter or aggregate a fixed retrieved set. In open-corpus question answering, however, decisive…
