Hop-bounded retrieval for latency-sensitive RAG
A graph algorithm that bounds the number of retrieval hops at query time so latency remains predictable under adversarial corpora.
Composite score
84/100Adversarial-robustness for retrieval pipelines is well studied; the explicit hop bound at serve time with a provable upper bound on latency is novel in combination.
