The paper presents a controlled comparison of six retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) strategies for scientific question answering on a large arXiv corpus. All pipelines use the same LLM generator and evaluation protocol, differing only in retrieval design—ranging from classic dense retrieval to late‑interaction methods like ColBERTv2. The authors also release a synthetic question dataset and code to enable reproducible, large‑scale evaluation of RAG trade‑offs.

arXiv:2607. 20465v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The quality of training data fundamentally determines the capabilities of large language models (LLMs), yet no unified benchmark exists to measure how well LLMs, agents, and data-centric workflows actually prepare training data end to end.

The paper introduces SSR, a simple yet effective data selection strategy for million‑scale multi‑modal instruction‑tuning. SSR uses interaction styles as a proxy for structural diversity and decomposes data quality into capability‑specific scores, forming a rich profile for each sample. By casting selection as submodular coverage maximization, SSR consistently outperforms random sampling across two architecture stacks, multiple data pools, and 14 benchmarks, achieving 99.1% of full‑data performance with only 30% of a 2.6M pool.
