• Abstract: Pretrained Large Language Models (LLMs) have gained significant attention for addressing open-domain Question Answering (QA). While they exhibit high accuracy in answering questions related to common knowledge, LLMs encounter difficulties in learning about uncommon long-tail knowledge (tail entities). Since manually constructing QA datasets demands substantial human resources, the types of existing QA datasets are limited, leaving us with a scarcity of datasets to study the performance of LLMs on tail entities. In this paper, we propose an automatic approach to generate specialized QA datasets for tail entities and present the associated research challenges. We conduct extensive experiments by employing pretrained LLMs on our newly generated long-tail QA datasets, comparing their performance with and without external resources including Wikipedia and Wikidata knowledge graphs.

  Open-domain complex Question Answering (QA) is a difficult task with challenges in evidence retrieval and reasoning. We evaluate state-of-the-art pre-trained dense and sparse retrieval models in an open-domain setting. We observe that late interaction models and surprisingly lexical models like BM25 perform well compared to other pre-trained dense retrieval models.

  Large Language Models (LLMs) are effective in performing various NLP tasks, but struggle to handle tasks that require extensive, real-world knowledge. We propose a benchmark that requires knowledge of long-tail facts for answering the involved questions. Our experiments show that LLMs alone struggle with answering these questions, especially when the long-tail level is high or rich knowledge is required.

  We propose CuriousLLM, an enhancement that integrates a curiosity-driven reasoning mechanism into an LLM agent. This mechanism enables the agent to generate relevant follow-up questions, thereby guiding the information retrieval process more efficiently. Our experiments show that CuriousLLM significantly boosts LLM performance in multi-document question answering (MD-QA)
