An Interactive Multi-modal Query Answering System with Retrieval-Augmented Large Language Models
Summary: Interactive multimodal QA via contrastive modality-aware retrieval and a computationally pruned navigation-graph index for efficient RAG over multimodal knowledge bases. A pluggable pipeline lets users swap embedding, indexing, and LLM components. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
