Multi-hop question answering is a complex problem that requires knowledge-intensive capabilities. Large Language Models (LLMs) use their Chain of Thoughts (CoT) capability to reason step-by-step, but recent methods have introduced retrieval-augmentation in the CoT reasoning to alleviate factual errors caused by outdated and unknown knowledge. However, these chain methods face two problems: irrelevant paragraphs may mislead the reasoning, and an error in the chain structure can lead to a cascade of errors.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Multi-hop question answering is like trying to solve a puzzle with multiple steps. Large Language Models are good at solving puzzles because they can reason step-by-step using their “Chain of Thoughts”. But sometimes, these models make mistakes because they don’t have all the right information. Some researchers tried to fix this by using more information to help the model understand what it doesn’t know. However, this didn’t work perfectly because the model might get confused if it finds irrelevant or wrong information.
