| Challenge: | Evidence-intensive reports often produce fluent but under-supported drafts . eviReport is an evidence-grounded workflow for automated long-form report generation . |
| Approach: | They propose an evidence-tracked workflow that organizes corpus evidence into compact, traceable units and retrieves query-relevant subgraphs into retrieval-ready packages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed workflow outperforms baselines in factual coverage, factual accuracy and visual evidence integration. |

Unstructured Evidence Attribution for Long Context Query Focused Summarization (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing systems struggle to copy and properly cite unstructured evidence, which also tends to be “lost-in-the-middle”. |
| Approach: | They propose to extract unstructured evidence spans to improve the trustworthiness of large language models by citing unstructure . they propose to use this dataset as a training supervision for unstructure-based evidence summarization. |
| Outcome: | The proposed pipeline generates more relevant and factually consistent evidence than baselines with no fine-tuning and fixed granularity evidence. |
