RAG: Retriever Routing for Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Tong Zhao, Yutao Zhu, Yucheng Tian +1

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has become a cornerstone for knowledge-intensive tasks. However, the efficacy of RAG is often bottlenecked by the ``one-size-fits-all'' retriev…

ATIR: Towards Audio-Text Interleaved Contextual Retrieval

Tong Zhao, Chenghao Zhang, Yutao Zhu +1

Audio carries richer information than text, including emotion, speaker traits, and environmental context, while also enabling lower-latency processing compared to speech-to-text pi…
