This paper addresses a more realistic setting: a user asks a question, and the answer is somewhere in a large collection of tables stored as images, such as scans or screenshots. The authors propose TabRAG, a three-stage… 2. **[When LLMs Read Tables Carelessly: Measuring and Reducing Data Referencing Errors](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yang-2026-when-llms-read-tables-carelessly/)** *(2026)* Even when LLMs parse a table correctly, they often misread it during reasoning. They cite the wrong cell, mix up columns, or skip relevant rows. The authors call these slips data referencing errors (DREs) and split them into two types: Incorrect Citation and Omitted Information.
