Critic-R: Improving Agentic Search using Instruction-tuned Retrievers with Natural Language Introspective Feedback

Md Zarif Ul Alam, Alireza Salemi, Hamed Zamani

Agentic search systems iteratively interact with retrieval models to answer complex queries. Despite substantial progress, optimizing retrievers for agentic search remains challeng…

A Unified Model and Document Representation for On-Device Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Julian Killingback, Ofer Meshi, Henry Li +2

Traditional Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) approaches generally assume that retrieval and generation occur on powerful servers removed from the end user. While this reduces l…

Uncertainty Quantification for Retrieval-Augmented Reasoning

Heydar Soudani, Hamed Zamani, Faegheh Hasibi

Retrieval-augmented reasoning (RAR) is a recent evolution of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) that employs multiple reasoning steps for retrieval and generation. While effectiv…
