  • 构建情感加权图谱,通过关系路径补充向量检索遗漏信息。
  • 多实体查询相关性提升11.7%,关系类问题召回率提高16.1%。
  • 适合需要理解企业关联的金融分析场景,如投研与风险监控。

检索增强生成(RAG)已成为将大模型扎根于领域语料的基础方法,但传统向量式RAG在捕捉金融市场分析中复杂的多主体结构关系方面存在根本局限。本文对比研究了一种新型两跳图增强型RAG架构与标准向量基线,在跨主体金融情感分析任务上的表现。系统从255篇新闻文章中构建涵盖59家上市公司、覆盖10只主要科技股的情感加权知识图谱,通过强度过滤的INFLUENCES边进行图遍历,挖掘向量搜索无法触及的关系证据。在100个基于事实的查询上(30个直接,70个关系型)评估,使用语义相似度、实体召回率、RAGAS指标、延迟基准及消融实验。结果显示,图增强架构在实体召回率上显著提升6.4%(p < 0.001,Wilcoxon符号秩检验),复杂多实体查询的答案相关性提升11.7%,关系类问题增益达16.1%。关键的是,回答质量无明显下降(语义相似度差值+0.001,Cohen's d = 0.078),平均延迟仅增加22.6%,但延迟方差降低80%。对图遍历强度阈值的消融分析揭示其与答案质量呈倒U型关系,最优阈值为tau=0.5,优于生产默认值tau=0.7。该研究揭示了图增强检索中的精确度-覆盖率权衡,并为构建多主体金融分析RAG系统提供可操作的设计指导。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become foundational for grounding large language models in domain-specific corpora, yet conventional vector-based RAG systems are fundamentally limited in their ability to capture the structured, multi-entity relationships that underpin financial market analysis. This paper presents a comprehensive comparative study of a novel two-hop Graph-RAG architecture versus a standard vector-only baseline for cross-entity financial sentiment analysis. Our system constructs a sentiment-weighted knowledge graph of 59 equity entities from 255 news articles covering 10 major technology stocks, then augments dense retrieval with intensity-filtered graph traversal over INFLUENCES edges to surface relational evidence inaccessible to vector search alone. We evaluate both architectures on 100 grounded queries (30 Direct, 70 Relational) using semantic similarity, entity recall, RAGAS metrics, latency benchmarks, and ablation studies. Graph-RAG achieves a statistically significant improvement in entity recall (+6.4%, p < 0.001, Wilcoxon signed-rank) and delivers substantially more relevant answers for complex multi-entity queries (+11.7% Answer Relevancy), with gains concentrating in relational question types (+16.1%). Critically, these improvements come at no measurable cost to answer quality (delta = +0.001 semantic similarity, Cohen's d = 0.078), with a modest 22.6% increase in mean latency offset by an 80% reduction in latency variance. An ablation study on the graph traversal intensity threshold reveals an inverted-U relationship with answer quality, identifying tau = 0.5 as optimal over the production default of tau = 0.7. These findings characterize a precision-for-coverage trade-off inherent to graph-augmented retrieval and provide actionable architectural guidance for practitioners building RAG systems for multi-entity financial analysis.
