NS-ST-GraphRAG is a neuro‑symbolic spatio‑temporal GraphRAG framework designed to process long‑form literary narratives by integrating ontology‑guided extraction, deterministic constraint checking, dual temporal coordinates, spatial scene attributes, and dynamic sub‑graph retrieval. It selects the appropriate graph state based on the temporal and spatial scope of a query, grounding generated answers in traceable evidence. The authors also introduce Red‑Chamber‑QA, an open multi‑hop question‑answering benchmark for classical Chinese literature, and report that NS‑ST‑GraphRAG outperforms a frozen‑window baseline and a closed‑book model on a held‑out 120‑question split.
arXiv:2607. 05577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-form fiction writers need memory that answers multi-hop questions about evolving story state: who knows a secret and when they learned it, whether an event preceded the narration that revealed it, whether a setup paid off, and how a relationship shifted.
arXiv:2606. 05724v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-form narrative QA requires reasoning over evolving story worlds rather than isolated passages: answers may depend on earlier goals, changing character states, social relations, causal triggers, temporal position, and later consequences.

ThreadRAG is a retrieval‑augmented generation framework that preserves contextual consistency by structuring retrieved documents into Semantic Nodes and building a Semantic Topology Graph (STG). It uses Energy‑Driven Pathfinding (EDP) to identify query‑relevant subgraphs and linearize them into coherent textual evidence paths. Experiments on HotpotQA, 2WikiMultihop, and another benchmark show ThreadRAG outperforms strong baselines, achieving a 14.4% EM gain on HotpotQA and a 5.8% EM lead on 2WikiMultihop while cutting token cost to 23.3% of the strongest baseline.

arXiv:2606. 00029v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation systems struggle with temporal reasoning and evidence fusion when answering complex questions over historical criminal case narratives.
arXiv:2609.38406v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Access to real-world information is often noisy and fragmented. Constructing a coherent narrative from such fragments requires models to reconstruct mi...

arXiv:2608. 15056v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems often rely on long unstructured contexts or aggressively expanded evidence graphs, which can introduce noisy evidence, weaken multi-hop reasoning, and increase unsupported generation.
arXiv:2607. 22597v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-hop question answering requires systems to retrieve evidence from multiple documents and connect scattered facts into a coherent reasoning process.
arXiv:2607. 09328v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Answering complex questions over long documents frequently requires integrating evidence that the source itself disperses naturally across distant passages.
arXiv:2608.29088v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal question answering remains sensitive to noisy, incomplete, and weakly grounded evidence. Long unstructured contexts can introduce redundancy...
