arXiv:2606. 18075v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a paradigm for enhancing large language models (LLMs) with external knowledge, yet existing graph-based methods face a fundamental limitation: entity-centric and chunk-centric approaches operate on representations anchored to original text without true knowledge fusion.

R$^{2}$Adapter is a lightweight plug‑in that dynamically routes user queries between vanilla and graph‑based Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. By sending only those queries that truly benefit from graph reasoning, it cuts graph‑retrieval overhead by up to 59% while keeping answer accuracy comparable. The adapter also rewrites uncertain graph‑routed queries to better expose multi‑hop reasoning needs, improving retrieval quality without extra supervision.

CAGE: Coherence-Aware Graph Encoding for Retrieval-Augmented Generation introduces a reranking framework that evaluates and enhances the coherence of retrieved passages across four dimensions—Intra-Domain Relevance, Noise Resistance, Informational Bonding, and Factual Consistency. The method transforms passages into directed heterogeneous entity graphs, reweights factual anchors, encodes structural patterns with a Relational Graph Convolutional Network, and fuses inter-chunk coherence with query relevance to produce a final ranking. Evaluations on four multi‑hop benchmarks show that CAGE matches or surpasses strong baselines, improving Recall@5 on bridge‑dominated datasets and consistently boosting downstream Exact Match scores, indicating that structurally coherent context leads to more precise answers even when retrieval recall is similar or lower.
