The authors evaluate retrieval-augmented generation evidence delivery by swapping components while holding questions and visible token budgets fixed. They measure claim recall: the fraction of reference claims supported by retrieved context. On FinanceBench, Semantic-512 changes recall by +0.27 points with sparse retrieval, −2.59 with dense retrieval, and +2.65 with late interaction. These results cover five tested benchmarks, not answer accuracy.
