arXiv:2602. 00845v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Agentic reasoning enables large reasoning models (LRMs) to dynamically acquire external knowledge, but yet optimizing the retrieval process remains challenging due to the lack of dense, principled reward signals.

arXiv:2606. 13680v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has become a standard mechanism for grounding language models in external knowledge, yet conventional retrieval based on lexical or semantic similarity is poorly suited for complex reasoning tasks: a semantically similar problem may demand an entirely different solution strategy, while a superficially different problem may share the same underlying reasoning pattern.

Agentic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) extends static RAG by allowing language models to iteratively reason, generate search queries, retrieve evidence, and predict answers. However, it remains challenging for models to decide when to retrieve, whether to use lexical matching or semantic similarity, and how to control context granularity to prevent irrelevant tokens from interfering with agent reasoning.
Large language model agents increasingly rely on reusable skills to extend their capabilities beyond parametric knowl- edge. However, retrieving the appropriate skill from a large- scale library remains challenging because realistic user re- quests are often concise and underspecified, stating only the task goal while leaving the required capabilities and execu- tion steps implicit.

arXiv:2608. 04761v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-improving agents accumulate reusable insights from prior trajectories, making retrieval increasingly important for turning accumulated experience into actionable guidance.

Self-improving agents accumulate reusable insights from prior trajectories, making retrieval increasingly important for turning accumulated experience into actionable guidance. At each decision step, retrieving the right insight can help the agent progress toward its goal, a setting we refer to as agentic insight retrieval.
