Recently, retrieval-augmented text generation attracted increasing attention of the computational linguistics community. Compared with conventional generation models, retrieval-augmented text generation has remarkable advantages and particularly has achieved state-of-the-art performance in many NLP tasks. This paper aims to conduct a survey about retrieval-augmented text generation. It firstly highlights the generic paradigm of retrieval-augmented generation, and then it reviews notable approaches according to different tasks including dialogue response generation, machine translation, and other generation tasks. Finally, it points out some important directions on top of recent methods to facilitate future research.

  1. MSRS: Evaluating Multi-Source Retrieval-Augmented Generation

    cs.CL 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    MSRS provides two multi-source retrieval and synthesis benchmarks and shows generation quality depends heavily on retrieval, with reasoning models best at oracle synthesis.

  2. NLKI: A lightweight Natural Language Knowledge Integration Framework for Improving Small VLMs in Commonsense VQA Tasks

    cs.CL 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    NLKI combines fine-tuned dense retrieval, LLM-generated explanations, and noise-robust losses to improve small VLMs on commonsense VQA.

  3. Multi-Modal Requirements Data-based Acceptance Criteria Generation using LLMs

    cs.SE 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Multi-modal RAG (text plus UI screenshots) with reward-based polishing generates acceptance criteria from user stories that three industry experts rated near 4/5 on relevance, correctness, and understandability.

  4. DARTH: Declarative Recall Through Early Termination for Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search

    cs.DB 2025-05 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    DARTH learns to predict a query's current recall during HNSW/IVF search and stops early at a user-specified target, achieving speedups up to 14.6x on HNSW and 41.8x on IVF, yet 13-15% of queries miss the target.

  5. Benchmarking Knowledge-Extraction Attack and Defense on Retrieval-Augmented Generation

    cs.CR 2026-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A unified benchmark comparing RAG knowledge-extraction attacks and defenses, showing query diversity boosts extraction, embedding attacks fail to transfer, and graph indexing raises per-token leakage.

  6. Investigating Student Interaction Patterns with Large Language Model-Powered Course Assistants in Computer Science Courses

    cs.CY 2025-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A deployed LLM course assistant served 589 students across three CS courses; logs show heavy evening use and homework questions, while only about 11% of responses included AI follow-ups that students mostly ignored.

  7. Position: The ML Community Must Build an AI-Augmented Peer-Review Ecosystem

    cs.AI 2025-06 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    The paper argues that AI-assisted peer review is an urgent priority and that its success depends on collecting richer, structured peer review process data.

  8. Enhancing Large Language Models with Reliable Knowledge Graphs

    cs.CL 2025-06 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    A thesis composed of four published papers proposes contrastive KG error detection, attribute-aware error-aware embedding, inductive graph completion, and KG prompting, but adds no new result beyond those papers.
