Beyond Semantic Similarity: Performance and Costs of Agentic Retrieval for Complex Tasks

The study explores agentic retrieval, which integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) with retrievers in a ReAct loop to enhance complex retrieval tasks. Experiments show it improves nDCG@10 by 8.7 points compared to standard retrieval, though it is significantly slower and more resource-intensive.

Real observations only. History before source connection is not reconstructed.

WHY IT MAY MATTER

This approach could be useful for complex search applications where standard retrieval methods fall short, but its high computational cost may limit real-time use cases.
