MDCR: A Dataset for Multi-Document Conditional Reasoning (2024.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | ConditionalQA is limited to questions on single documents, neglecting harder cases that may require *cross-document reasoning* and *optimization*. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a dataset to evaluate models' ability to answer eligibility questions on single documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset can reflect real-world challenges and serve as a test bed for complex conditional reasoning that requires optimization. |
Can we Retrieve Everything All at Once? ARM: An Alignment-Oriented LLM-based Retrieval Method (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing RAG solutions address the alignment problem in a limited manner . ARM explores relationships among data objects, enabling a retrieve-all-at-once solution for complex queries . |
| Approach: | Experimental results show that ARM improves alignment of open-domain questions with available data . ARM explores relationships among data objects, enabling a retrieve-all-at-once solution for complex queries. |
| Outcome: | Experimental results show that ARM outperforms existing RAG methods on complex open-domain questions. |
