New RAG System Enhances PDF Retrieval with Multimodal Fusion

Researchers have developed Multimodal CoLRAG-TF, a novel retrieval-augmented generation system designed to handle complex PDFs with multimodal content and multi-hop reasoning requirements. The system employs a four-axis fusion architecture that combines dense text embeddings, BM25 keyword matching, knowledge-graph triple filtering, and image-based similarity. By extracting and indexing open information extraction triples, the system achieves sub-second lookup and hierarchical relevance propagation, significantly improving multi-hop retrieval quality. Evaluations show a retrieval recall of 0.9909 and a substantial increase in answer similarity for multi-hop queries, demonstrating the effectiveness of triple-filtered multimodal fusion for structured reasoning over challenging documents.

    Multimodal CoLRAG-TF: Triple-Filtered Retrieval for Complex PDFs

    arXiv:2607.20517v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over heterogeneous PDF collections remains challenging due to multimodal content, domain-specific terminology, and the need for multi-hop reasoning across dispersed evidence. We present Multimoda…
