Multi-Hop Retrieval
Executing iterative search rounds where information retrieved in step 1 informs what query to run in step 2.
Why it exists
Complex questions (e.g. 'What was the revenue of the company that bought X?') require linking multiple separate facts.
How it works
Hop 1 retrieves facts about company X's buyer (Company Y). Hop 2 generates a search query to retrieve financial records for Company Y.
