Enhancing Document-Level Question Answering via Multi-Hop Retrieval-Augmented Generation with LLaMA 3

Year: 2025
Type: preprint
Abstract: This paper presents a novel Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework tailored for complex question answering tasks, addressing challenges in multi-hop reasoning and contextual understanding across lengthy documents. Built upon LLaMA 3, the framework integrates a dense retrieval module with advanced context fusion and multi-hop reasoning mechanisms, enabling more accurate and coherent response generation. A joint optimization strategy combining retrieval likelihood and generation cross-entropy improves the model's robustness and adaptability. Experimental results show that the proposed system outperforms existing retrieval-augmented and generative baselines, confirming its effectiveness in delivering precise, contextually grounded answers.
