GraphMemix selects question-relevant memories and verified links from multimodal archives. It retrieves candidates, assesses direct support and whether linked evidence adds information, then chooses a compact forest for answering. Across four benchmarks, it achieves 61.55% macro-average Judge Accuracy with Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct, versus UniversalRAG’s 49.80%. Judge Accuracy reflects answers judged correct; GraphMemix leads each benchmark in this setting.

Key insights

  • Focusing intensive semantic reasoning and optimization on a bounded, query-relevant subgraph drastically reduces memory lifecycle costs compared to global preprocessing approaches.
  • Explicitly modeling inter-evidence dependencies and performing joint forest optimization effectively retrieves complementary, low-similarity information that direct retrieval methods typically miss.
  • Separating verifier responsibilities for independent node utility and anchor-conditioned relational support enhances accuracy and recall without incurring sequential processing costs.
