Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: Processing a Complex Question
Open Source Code No The paper does not explicitly state that the source code for their methodology is publicly available, nor does it provide a link to a code repository for their work.
Open Datasets Yes We select four complex multi-hop question-answering datasets, Hotpot QA(Yang et al. 2018), Hy Brid QA(Chen et al. 2020), Musique(Trivedi et al. 2022), and Wiki Multi Hop QA (WMHQA)(Ho et al. 2020).
Dataset Splits No The paper describes the datasets used (Hotpot QA, Hy Brid QA, Musique, WMHQA) but does not explicitly state the specific training, validation, and test splits (e.g., percentages or sample counts) used for its experiments.
Hardware Specification No The paper mentions using 'gpt-3.5-turbo' via OpenAI's API and 'ColBERTv2' as a retrieval model, but it does not provide any specific details about the hardware (e.g., GPU models, CPU types) used for running their experiments or training their own models.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using 'gpt-3.5-turbo' and 'ColBERTv2' as well as 'T5' as the basis model, but it does not specify version numbers for these or any other software dependencies, such as programming languages or deep learning frameworks.
Experiment Setup No The paper describes the models used (gpt-3.5-turbo, ColBERTv2, T5) and data collection for training custom components (RTC, QG), but it does not provide specific experimental setup details such as hyperparameters (e.g., learning rate, batch size, number of epochs, optimizer settings) for training their models.
