Web Retrieval-Aware Chunking (W-RAC) for Efficient and Cost-Effective Retrieval-Augmented Generation Systems

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2604.04936v1 Announce Type: cross Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems critically depend on effective document chunking strategies to balance retrieval quality, latency, and operational cost. Traditional chunking approaches, such as fixed-size, rule-based, or fully agentic chunking, often suffer from high token consumption, redundant text generation, limited scalability, and poor debuggability, especially for large-scale web content ingestion.
