Think Before You Link: Rarity, Reasoning, and Retrieval in Multilingual Entity Linking

The paper introduces a new perspective on entity rarity in multimodal entity linking by using knowledge‑graph structural metrics instead of popularity metrics, revealing many rare entities previously overlooked. Experiments show that state‑of‑the‑art models suffer a 15.4–39.9% accuracy drop on these rare‑entity slices. The authors propose a training‑free framework that combines reasoning and retrieval with a vision‑language model, achieving a 6.9% overall accuracy gain and up to 23.3% improvement on rare entities, and release a new benchmark MERLIN‑Rare for focused evaluation.

Hybrid Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Knowledge Graph Expansion, RRF Fusion, and Per-Chunk Grounded Evaluation for Enterprise Document Search

Hybrid Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Knowledge Graph Expansion, RRF Fusion, and Per-Chunk Grounded Evaluation for Enterprise Document Search describes DocuSearch, an offline multi‑agent system designed for telecom network operations. The system combines semantic vector search, BM25 full‑text search, and knowledge‑graph neighbor expansion, merges the results via Reciprocal Rank Fusion, and reranks with a cross‑encoder before pruning with Maximal Marginal Relevance. A per‑chunk evaluation loop ensures only grounded answers are returned, achieving Precision@10 of 0.69, Recall@10 of 0.79, and an 89.6% grounding rate—improvements of 15, 16, and 18.4 percentage points over a dense‑only baseline.
