## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[WebThinker: Empowering Large Reasoning Models with Deep Research Capability](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2025-webthinker-empowering-large-reasoning-models/)** *(2025 · 72 citations)* Large reasoning models such as DeepSeek-R1 and QwQ handle long reasoning chains well, but they can only use what they memorized during training.
2. **[Hierarchical Document Refinement for Long-context Retrieval-augmented Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jin-2025-hierarchical-document-refinement-long-context/)** *(2025 · 25 citations)* Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) often feeds an LLM very long retrieved documents. These texts carry much irrelevant material, which raises inference cost and lowers answer quality. Existing compressors either target short chunks or rank tokens with crude signals such as perplexity, so they ignore how a document…
3. **[RetroLLM: Empowering Large Language Models to Retrieve Fine-grained Evidence within Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2025-retrollm-empowering-large-language-models/)** *(2025 · 19 citations)* RetroLLM targets three weaknesses of standard retrieval-augmented generation (RAG): the cost of running a separate retriever, long inputs padded with redundant retrieved chunks, and the fact that retrieval and generation cannot be optimized together.
4. **[Beyond Noise: Characterizing Creative Potential in Unverifiable LLM Hallucinations](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yan-2026-beyond-noise-characterizing-creative-potential/)** *(2026)* When LLMs are asked to invent new scientific or technical concepts, many of their outputs cannot be checked against existing evidence.
