• Title: LLM-Ref: Enhancing Reference Handling in Technical Writing with Large Language Models
• Authors: Kazi Ahmed Asif Fuad, Lizhong Chen,
• Abstract summary: We present LLM-Ref, a writing assistant tool that aids researchers in writing articles from multiple source documents. Unlike traditional RAG systems that use chunking and indexing, our tool retrieves and generates content directly from text paragraphs. Our approach achieves a $3.25times$ to $6.26times$ increase in Ragas score, a comprehensive metric that provides a holistic view of a RAG system's ability to produce accurate, relevant, and contextually appropriate responses.

• Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in data synthesis but can be inaccurate in domain-specific tasks, which retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems address by leveraging user-provided data. However, RAGs require optimization in both retrieval and generation stages, which can affect output quality. In this paper, we present LLM-Ref, a writing assistant tool that aids researchers in writing articles from multiple source documents with enhanced reference synthesis and handling capabilities. Unlike traditional RAG systems that use chunking and indexing, our tool retrieves and generates content directly from text paragraphs. This method facilitates direct reference extraction from the generated outputs, a feature unique to our tool. Additionally, our tool employs iterative response generation, effectively managing lengthy contexts within the language model's constraints. Compared to baseline RAG-based systems, our approach achieves a $3.25\times$ to $6.26\times$ increase in Ragas score, a comprehensive metric that provides a holistic view of a RAG system's ability to produce accurate, relevant, and contextually appropriate responses. This improvement shows our method enhances the accuracy and contextual relevance of writing assistance tools.

  Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) is an effective technique that enables large language models to utilize external knowledge sources for generation. In this paper, we introduce VisRAG, which tackles this issue by establishing a vision-language model (VLM)-based RAG pipeline. In this pipeline, instead of first parsing the document to obtain text, the document is directly embedded using a VLM as an image and then retrieved to enhance the generation of a VLM.

  Large language models (LLMs) augmented with retrieval exhibit robust performance and extensive versatility. We propose a novel paradigm named Sparse RAG, which seeks to cut costs through sparsity. Sparse RAG encodes retrieved documents in parallel, which eliminates latency introduced by long-range attention of retrieved documents.
