Projection and Quantisation: A Unifying View of Learning to Hash, from Random Projections to the RAG Era

arXiv:2510. 04127v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Approximate nearest neighbour (ANN) search underpins large-scale retrieval, increasingly within the retrieval-augmented generation pipelines that ground large language models, yet the methods that address it have multiplied across communities until they are seldom read as a single field.

RankGraph-2: Lifecycle Co-Design for Billion-Node Graph Learning in Recommendation

arXiv:2606. 18379v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph-based retrieval at billion-node scale requires jointly solving three tightly coupled problems -- graph construction, representation learning, and real-time serving -- yet existing work addresses each in isolation.

Panorama: Fast-Track Nearest Neighbors

arXiv:2510. 00566v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Approximate Nearest-Neighbor Search (ANNS) pipelines for high-dimensional neural embeddings spend the bulk of their query time in candidate verification, making it the primary bottleneck in the search process.

Cost-Governed RAG: Unified Per-Tenant Cost Attribution Across Retrieval and Generation in Multi-Tenant LLM Systems

arXiv:2607. 12188v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Enterprise Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) deployments face a critical governance gap: while LLM generation cost is metered per token, the retrieval layer - vector memory, similarity compute, and embedding API calls - remains an unattributed shared cost, enabling invisible cross-subsidization among tenants.
