arXiv:2608.14587v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Background: Recent advances in information retrieval (IR) leverage both dense and sparse representations, large language models (LLMs), and specialized retrieval models to improve ranking accuracy, relevance, and cross-lingual performance. Complementary techniques such as passage indexing, document layout analysis, and semantic knowledge representation further enhance retrieval effectiveness by capturing fine-grained contextual and structural information. Emerging agentic LLM frameworks extend these capabilities by enabling planning, iterative reasoning, tool use, and multi-agent collaboration, thereby broadening applications across diverse domains. These frameworks also emphasize rigorous evaluation, ethical considerations, and trustworthiness, ensuring responsible deployment in real-world settings. We propose a modular, agent-based pipeline for botanical trait extraction. Optical character recognition (OCR) converts PDFs into machine-readable text, while segmentation and indexing organize content by genus and species. Rule-based parsers extract structured botanical traits, and ensembles of large language models (LLMs) expand trait vocabularies and resolve ambiguities. This approach ensures accurate species recognition, scalable annotation, and explainable integration of textual botanical descriptions, enabling robust and interpretable data extraction across large botanical corpora. Results: Using three regional botanical datasets, our system extracted 55,737 trait annotations across 4,961 species, averaging 9.1 traits per …
