FlowRAG: Synergizing Explicit Reasoning via Frequency-Aware Multi-Granularity Graph Flow

arXiv:2606. 17856v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph-based retrieval-augmented generation (GraphRAG) is effective for knowledge-intensive and multi-hop query tasks; however, many existing methods primarily seed entity-based graphs and rely on implicit semantic relevance propagation.

Hi-Q: Hierarchical Evidence-guided Query Refinement for Multi-Hop Question Answering

Hi-Q is a new framework for multi‑hop question answering that refines queries hierarchically based on evidence retrieved from a corpus. At each node it tests whether the current query unit is supported by evidence; if not, the node is expanded using a dependency‑preserving binary operator and verified for semantic coverage. The resulting query tree grows according to corpus support signals, and Hi‑Q achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on three multi‑hop QA benchmarks, outperforming both iterative retrieval and graph‑based baselines without constructing a corpus‑wide graph.
