让大模型生成更准:用统一框架同步对齐语义与证据约束
Coordinated Semantic Alignment and Evidence Constraints for Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Large Language Models
- 构建统一语义空间,对齐查询与检索内容的语义
- 将证据显式作为生成控制因子,提升事实可靠性
- 适合需要高可信度生成的应用场景
检索增强生成通过引入外部知识缓解大语言模型在事实一致性与知识更新方面的局限。然而实际应用仍面临检索结果与生成目标之间的语义错位,以及证据利用不足的问题。本文提出一种融合语义对齐与证据约束的检索增强生成方法,通过协同建模检索与生成阶段来解决上述挑战。首先在统一语义空间中表示查询与候选证据的相关性,确保检索结果与生成目标保持语义一致,减少噪声证据和语义漂移的干扰。在此基础上,引入显式证据约束机制,将检索到的证据从隐式上下文转变为生成过程的核心控制因素,限制生成内容的表达范围并强化其对证据的依赖。通过在统一框架内联合建模语义一致性与证据约束,所提方法在保持自然语言流畅性的前提下,显著提升了事实可靠性与可验证性。对比实验表明,在多个生成质量指标上均实现稳定提升,验证了协同语义对齐与证据约束建模的有效性与必要性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Retrieval augmented generation mitigates limitations of large language models in factual consistency and knowledge updating by introducing external knowledge. However, practical applications still suffer from semantic misalignment between retrieved results and generation objectives, as well as insufficient evidence utilization. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a retrieval augmented generation method that integrates semantic alignment with evidence constraints through coordinated modeling of retrieval and generation stages. The method first represents the relevance between queries and candidate evidence within a unified semantic space. This ensures that retrieved results remain semantically consistent with generation goals and reduces interference from noisy evidence and semantic drift. On this basis, an explicit evidence constraint mechanism is introduced. Retrieved evidence is transformed from an implicit context into a core control factor in generation. This restricts the expression scope of generated content and strengthens dependence on evidence. By jointly modeling semantic consistency and evidence constraints within a unified framework, the proposed approach improves factual reliability and verifiability while preserving natural language fluency. Comparative results show stable improvements across multiple generation quality metrics. This confirms the effectiveness and necessity of coordinated semantic alignment and evidence constraint modeling in retrieval augmented generation tasks.
