RECAST: Learning to Compute the Right Context through Adaptive Evidence Routing

Large language models are increasingly applied to tasks grounded in long, heterogeneous information sources. Conventional Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) relies on fixed similarity-based retrieval, while agentic variants adapt queries and tool use but remain largely retrieval-centric. However, in many tasks, the evidence required for a solution is not explicitly present in any single source item. Instead, it mus...
