Lifelong personalized tutoring built on the lab's own retrieval stack, targeting persistent learner models rather than per-session Q&A. One academic group with three separately successful agent projects is its own signal about where usable agent research is currently coming fr...

HKUDS/LightRAG (EMNLP 2025), microsoft/graphrag, and milvus-io/milvus remain the three anchors of graph and vector retrieval, all clustered within 10K stars of each other. None has broken away, which is itself the signal: graph RAG hasn't picked a winner after eighteen months....
