- 适合需要精准整合多篇论文的研究者和AI写作工具开发者。
检索增强型科学综述旨在通过整合多篇论文信息,回答复杂研究问题。由于生成器仅能基于重排器选择和组织的信息进行合成,生成结果的质量高度依赖于重排效果。然而,多数重排器仅在段落层级操作,导致关键的方法、实证和对比信息被埋藏于长而扁平的上下文中,削弱了生成结论的依据性。此外,现有重排器主要依赖独立的查询-候选评分,忽视了科学候选句之间的互补、上下文及对比关系,限制了信息覆盖度与综合性的提升。为此,我们提出LoG-Reranker,一种面向科学综述的局部到全局句子级图重排框架。该框架首先进行角色感知的局部打分以识别细粒度、与查询相关的句子,随后在候选集内构建句子图,建模其相互关系,实现全局重排。排名靠前的句子及其连接邻居被组织为结构化输入上下文,供生成器使用,以产出更具依据性和全面性的综述内容。在科学综述与重排基准上的大量实验表明,LoG-Reranker持续优于竞争性方法,带来更可靠的排序,并显著提升生成综述质量。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Retrieval-augmented scientific synthesis aims to answer complex research questions by integrating information from multiple papers into comprehensive and well-grounded responses. Since the generator can only synthesize the information selected and organized by the reranker, the quality of the generated synthesis depends critically on the reranked results. However, most rerankers operate at the passage level, which leaves key methodological, empirical, and comparative information buried in long and flat contexts, weakening the grounding of generated claims. Moreover, existing rerankers mainly rely on independent query-candidate scoring which overlooks complementary, contextual, and contrasting relations across scientific candidates, limiting information coverage and the comprehensiveness of the resulting synthesis. To address these limitations, we propose LoG-Reranker, a local-to-global sentence-level graph reranking framework for scientific synthesis. LoG-Reranker performs role-aware local scoring to identify fine-grained, query-relevant sentences and then models their relations on a sentence graph across the candidate set to globally refine sentence rankings. Top-ranked sentences and their connected neighbors are organized into a structured input context for generator to produce more grounded and comprehensive synthesis.Extensive experiments on scientific synthesis and reranking benchmarks show that LoG-Reranker consistently outperforms competitive rerankers, yielding more reliable rankings and improving the quality of generated synthesis.
