arXiv:2608. 08512v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evolving documents, such as laws, tax codes, and software documentation, are amended, replaced, and sometimes reverted over time, so a question has different correct answers at different dates.

AtomCite is an agentic framework that verifies and corrects page‑level citations in multi‑page documents by parsing answers into claims, checking each claim against the cited page image, and applying a deterministic repair policy. The authors introduce DocCite, the first benchmark for this task, built on MP‑DocVQA and DUDE, containing 928 injected instances and 1,909 verified natural errors. Across Gemini, Claude, and GPT models, AtomCite achieves about 93% verification accuracy and improves citation precision from 34% to 87‑90%, while also enhancing hallucination detection in open‑source models.

The paper introduces ingest‑time fact compilation, an architecture that preprocesses and compiles corpus data into self‑contained facts with resolved revisions, deletions, and source trust. By storing this compiled state, query‑time models can retrieve answers directly, avoiding costly reconstruction from raw passages. Experiments show that this approach reduces read cost per question by 12.89× and token usage by 21.6× while maintaining accuracy.

KnowForge is a modular pipeline for open‑domain multimodal document question answering that separates retrieval, judging, and reading into distinct agents. It uses a hybrid‑retrieval knowledge‑point index, a Locator agent for searching, a Bridge Judge to enforce a second hop, a Deep Reader that handles text, images, and tables, and a synthesizer with format checking. On the M3DocVQA benchmark it achieves an F1 of 47.5, outperforming prior systems by 11 points, and shows strong gains on MultiHop‑RAG and MMLongBench‑Doc as well.
