Current workarounds each have drawbacks. Retrieval stores keep growing, fact-level editing struggles with longer passages, and long-context approaches eventually run out of context length. This paper proposes… 3. **[HyperAdaLoRA: Accelerating LoRA Rank Allocation During Training via Hypernetworks without Sacrificing Performance](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2026-hyperadalora-accelerating-lora-rank-allocation/)** *(2026 · 5 citations)* AdaLoRA improves on LoRA by giving different weight matrices different ranks. It does this by expressing each update in SVD form (P, Λ, Q) and pruning unimportant singular values. The cost is slow convergence and heavy computation during training. HyperAdaLoRA addresses this. Instead of updating P, Λ and Q directly… 4. **[Agentic Conversational Search with Contextualized Reasoning via Reinforcement Learning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mo-2026-agentic-conversational-search-contextualized-reasoning/)** *(2026 · 2 citations)* Multi-turn conversational search is usually handled by a fixed "rewrite, retrieve, generate" chain of separately trained components. 5. **[SessionIntentBench: A Multi-task Inter-session Intention-shift Modeling Benchmark for E-commerce Customer Behavior Understanding](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yang-2026-sessionintentbench-multi-task-inter-session/)** *(2026)* E-commerce services benefit from knowing what a shopper wants at a given moment. User profiles and purchase records are often missing, and earlier intention research covers only single or co-buy purchases, mostly using product titles and images.
