A new research paper proposes a novel approach to improve verification in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems, particularly for multi-hop question answering. The study demonstrates that traditional per-chunk filtering methods are ineffective for multi-hop queries, as no single chunk contains sufficient information. The proposed solution involves conditioning verification on decomposed sub-questions, which significantly boosts performance on datasets like MuSiQue. The research also highlights that off-the-shelf models like Qwen2.5-7B can be adapted for this decomposition task, though they may not fully capture the potential gains. AI
