| Challenge: | Existing RAG systems struggle with the quality of retrieval documents, causing performance degradation and reducing performance. |
| Approach: | They propose a training-free RAG framework that leverages multiple LLM agents to collaboratively filter and score retrieved documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms existing RAG frameworks in QA benchmarks and shows superior answer consistency and answer accuracy over baseline methods. |

| Challenge: | Existing offline approaches to improve an LLM-based customer support system rely on batch annotations. |
| Approach: | They propose an agent-in-the-loop framework that integrates four key types of annotations directly into live customer operations: (1) pairwise response preferences, (2) agent adoption and rationales, (3) knowledge relevance checks, and (4) identification of missing knowledge. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework reduces retraining cycles from months to weeks by integrating four key types of annotations directly into live customer operations. |
