Charlie让法庭取证更安全高效,本地运行且可追溯。
CHARLIE: An On-Premise Multi-Agent Retrieval-Augmented Generation System for Evidential Reasoning in Forensic Science

- 多智能体协作处理证据,本地部署保障数据安全。
- 支持跨文档提取与长期情报生成,保持审计可查。
- 适合对合规性要求高的司法与执法机构使用。
我们提出Charlie,一个在机构内本地运行的多智能体检索增强生成系统,用于数字取证中的结构化证据处理。当前取证工作需应对大量异构、非结构化文档,同时满足可追溯性、保密性和法律合规要求。Charlie通过受控的智能体架构,结合本地检索、任务分解、结构化记忆与验证机制,解决该挑战。相比云端系统,它完全在机构内部基础设施中运行,确保数据主权与证据完整性。本文描述系统架构,从传统RAG向智能体编排的演进,并展示其在真实取证场景中的应用。案例研究显示,Charlie能实现可扩展的多文档数据提取,支持长期取证情报生成,同时保持可追溯性与可审计性。结果表明,基于智能体的本地RAG架构可在不违反法律与制度约束的前提下,有效支撑证据工作流程。Charlie为高风险取证环境部署AI系统提供了实用且可复现的方案。本文是提交至RELAF 2026研讨会论文的归档版本。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
We present Charlie, an on-premise multi-agent Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system for structured evidential processing in digital forensic environments. Contemporary forensic workflows must handle large volumes of heterogeneous and unstructured documents under strict requirements of traceability, confidentiality, and legal compliance. Charlie addresses this challenge through a controlled agent architecture that combines local retrieval, task decomposition, structured memory, and verification mechanisms. Unlike cloud-based systems, it operates entirely within institutional infrastructure, preserving data sovereignty and evidential integrity. We describe the systems architecture, including its transition from classical RAG to agent-based orchestration, and demonstrate its application in real-world forensic scenarios. Case studies show that Charlie enables scalable multi-document data extraction and supports longitudinal forensic intelligence generation while maintaining traceability and auditability. Our results indicate that agent-orchestrated, on-premise RAG architectures can effectively support evidential workflows without compromising legal and institutional constraints. Charlie provides a practical and reproducible blueprint for deploying AI systems in high-stakes forensic environments.
