arXiv:2607. 24846v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional conversational recommenders entangle retrieval and response generation within a single text interface, so exact entity cues fade as the dialogue's intent evolves, which compromises explanation credibility.

arXiv:2606. 01223v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite substantial progress in long-context modeling, existing benchmarks remain confined to factual memory for explicit recall, failing to measure the reflective memory required to synthesize fragmented, multimodal cues into high-level interpretations.

The paper introduces Retrieval-Augmented Decoding (RAD), a decoding-time method that improves the truthfulness of large language models without retraining. RAD uses a small reference set of up to ten annotated examples to build a grounding space of context embeddings and next-token logits, which it retrieves and aggregates during inference to shape the model’s output. Experiments on four open-ended generation benchmarks and four different LLMs show that RAD consistently outperforms strong baselines and generalizes well across tasks.
