arXiv:2608. 03161v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Lecture videos distribute knowledge across speech, slide text, diagrams, equations, and presentation order, which transcript-only retrieval does not fully preserve.
arXiv:2606. 09064v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in Video Large Language Models (Video-LLMs) have enabled performance on long-video understanding tasks.
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:2606. 26458v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over knowledge graphs has emerged as a promising approach for grounding large language models, yet existing benchmarks largely overlook the challenges of retrieval in multimodal knowledge graph RAG (MKG-RAG).
arXiv:2606. 07924v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper presents our system description for the 2nd Workshop on Multimodal Augmented Generation via MultimodAl Retrieval (MAGMaR).
arXiv:2604. 01280v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA) requires Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to identify and combine fine-grained visual cues with retrieved textual evidence.
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) streamlines long-document understanding by leveraging retrieval mechanisms to restrict input images to a highly curated subset. However, existing multimodal RAG pipelines primarily face two critical challenges: first, standard semantic similarity retrievers frequently fetch topically overlapping yet answer-void distractor pages that mislead downstream generation; second, rigid single-pass pipelines heavily depend on initial retrieval success, where any omission of core evidence inevitably causes cascading errors.
arXiv:2606. 14762v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As video content continues to expand across educational platforms, recorded lectures, and live-streamed entertainment, the need for efficient and structured analysis of long-form footage has increased \cite{1}.
arXiv:2607. 22643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal retrieval-augmented generation (mRAG) aims to answer image-text queries with external knowledge, but most existing systems still retrieve directly from raw multimodal input over a flat evidence space.
arXiv:2607. 20517v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over heterogeneous PDF collections remains challenging due to multimodal content, domain-specific terminology, and the need for multi-hop reasoning across dispersed evidence.
arXiv:2607. 24799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models tend to hallucinate when answering domain-specific ques tions from scientific documents without prior fine-tuning.
arXiv:2607. 16208v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph-grounded multimodal question answering organizes text, tables, and images in a structured evidence graph, yet end-to-end accuracy depends on which multimodal assets are ranked highly enough to enter downstream reasoning; for graph-linked images, single-vector bi-encoder similarity can discard patch- and token-level structure needed for fine-grained alignment.
arXiv:2606. 07433v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video understanding is being rapidly transformed by multimodal large language models (MLLMs), as research moves from short clips to long, multimodal, and knowledge-intensive video scenarios.
