Web Retrieval-Aware Chunking (W-RAC) for Efficient and Cost-Effective Retrieval-Augmented Generation Systems
Apr 8, 2026arXiv Information Retrieval
Event Summary
arXiv:2604.04936v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems critically depend on effective document chunking strategies to balance retrieval quality, latency, and operational cost. Traditional chunking approaches, such as fixed-size, rule-based, or fully agentic chun
