Efficient RAG with Intent-Aware Retrieval and Semantics-Preserving Chunking 文章

arXiv:2606.01240v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The demand for powerful instruction following and reasoning capability of large language models (LLMs) has promoted rapid development of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). The RAG system assists LLM generation by retrieving chunks of query-fit supplementary knowledge from an external database. Conventional RAG systems, however, suffer from information insufficiency due to two factors, which are intent-agnostic retrieval and information fragmentation. Our work proposes a RAG framework, termed InSemRAG, that addresses these challenges via an iterative retrieve-and-check mechanism with two supporting modules, an intention-aware retriever (IAR) and semantics-preserving chunking (SPC). IAR implements a dynamic hybrid retrieval method that adaptively weights the retrieval channels based on the query intent, while SPC performs detection and reparation to the damaged evidence chunks to preserve the semantic integrity.
