Key points

  • It finds a retrieval-equivalence collapse phenomenon, where different queries increasingly retrieve the same information as training progresses.
  • It replaces free-form query generation with graph-based finite action selection over Select, Lookup, and Answer.
  • Structured Non-myopic Credit, or SNC, assigns credit by comparing alternative actions from the same state.
  • It improves average F1 by +10.74 points for Graph-R1 at 1.5B and +3.98 points at 3B, reaching the best score on six QA benchmarks.
  • Graph construction costs $0 when done programmatically, far cheaper than LLM-based graph construction, which costs $2.81 to $4.14.
