Description

Large Language Models (LLMs) showcase impressive capabilities but encounter challenges like hallucination, outdated knowledge, and non-transparent, untraceable reasoning processes. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a promising solution by incorporating knowledge from external databases. This enhances the accuracy and credibility of the generation, particularly for knowledge-intensive tasks, and allows for continuous knowledge updates and integration of domain-specific information. RAG synergistically merges LLMs' intrinsic knowledge with the vast, dynamic repositories of exte

Research goal: How does the number of reasoning hops in multi-hop QA benchmarks (2-hop vs 3-hop in HotPotQA) affect the relative MRR@10 improvement from adversarial training on retriever robustness in domain-adaptive RAG systems?
