VecTree-RAG: An Agentic Retrieval-Augmented Generation Framework Combining Vector and Tree Retrieval for Efficiency and Accuracy

arXiv:2607. 23006v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Scientific question answering requires a retrieval system to solve two distinct problems: identifying which papers are relevant and locating the supporting evidence within those papers.

Hierarchical Evidence-Driven Reasoning for Long Document Understanding

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.

DOSA: A Tree-Guided, Self-Regressive Framework for Long Document Structure Analysis

arXiv:2607. 22679v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In visually-rich documents, information is encoded not only in individual page objects such as tables, headers, and text blocks, but also in the structural relations among them, making document structure analysis fundamental to information retrieval and document understanding.
