让检索生成模型自动补全抽象层级差异，提升问答准确率

Retrieval-augmented generation often fails when the query, the document evidence, and the user's intent are expressed at different levels of abstraction. A query may ask about a class, a relation, or an event, while the document only states specific instances, indirect framings, or scoped formulations. We define this mismatch as an abstraction gap: the minimal set of typed assumptions required to align query intent with the available evidence. To close this gap, we introduce AbstRAG, which treats abstraction as an explicit retrieval object. AbstRAG decomposes the query--evidence gap into expression, conceptual, intent--evidence, and event-type components, and scores relevance by combining match quality, a query-independent utility prior, and the cost of the required bridges. Its central mechanism is reflective refinement: a critic diagnoses retrieval failures, localizes the failed abstraction operator, proposes a minimal stage-specific patch, and accepts the patch only under sufficiency and compression controls. Across three within-document retrieval benchmarks against seven baselines, AbstRAG outperforms on nDCG@10 in 18 of 21 paired-bootstrap contrasts and improves generation accuracy by 1.9%, 5.2%, and 4.0% across the three benchmarks; ablations confirm that reflective refinement drives most of the retrieval gain and the compression control alone reduces over-expansion false positives from 73.7% to 0% on a stress slice.
