Recent advancements in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) have improved large language models (LLMs) by incorporating external knowledge at inference time. Graph-based RAG systems have emerged as promising approaches, enabling multi-hop reasoning by organizing retrieved information into structured graphs. However, when knowledge graphs are constructed from unstructured documents using LLMs, they often suffer from fragmentation—resulting in disconnected subgraphs that limit inferential coherence and undermine the advantages of graph-based retrieval. To address these limitations, we propose ReGraphRAG, a novel framework designed to reconstruct and enrich fragmented knowledge graphs through three core components: Graph Reorganization, Perspective Expansion, and Query-aware Reranking. Experiments on four benchmarks show that ReGraphRAG outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving over 80% average diversity win rate. Ablation studies highlight the key contributions of graph reorganization and especially perspective expansion to performance gains.

Attention mechanisms have become a crucial aspect of deep learning, particularly in natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, in tasks such as constituency parsing, attention mechanisms can lack the directional information needed to form sentence spans. To address this issue, we propose a Bidirectional masked and N-gram span Attention (BNA) model, which is designed by modifying the attention mechanisms to capture the explicit dependencies between each word and enhance the representation of the output span vectors. The proposed model achieves state-of-the-art performance on the Penn Treebank and Chinese Penn Treebank datasets, with F1 scores of 96.47 and 94.15, respectively. Ablation studies and analysis show that our proposed BNA model effectively captures sentence structure by contextualizing each word in a sentence through bidirectional dependencies and enhancing span representation.
