ConRAG: Lightweight inference of multi-hop relations
Understanding how two entities are connected often requires tracing multi-hop relations across documents to identify intermediate entities and supporting evidence that explain a connection. This is a task that appears frequently in scientific research and other knowledge-intensive analyses. We formalise this setting as multi-hop relation inference: given two known endpoint entities, we aim to recover the bridge entities and evidence-grounded reasoning chains that connect them across a document corpus, and to generate an explanation grounded in the retrieved evidence. Existing multi-hop RAG systems typically seek an unknown answer entity rather than explicitly recovering the connection bet...
