Astute RAG
First page
Paper summary
proposes a novel RAG approach to deal with the imperfect retrieval augmentation and knowledge conflicts of LLMs; Astute RAG adaptively elicits essential information from LLMs' internal knowledge; then it iteratively consolidates internal and external knowledge with source awareness; Astute RAG is designed to better combine internal and external information through an interactive consolidation mechanism (i.e., identifying consistent passages, detecting conflicting information in them, and filtering out irrelevant information).
