LitSeg: Narrative-Aware Document Segmentation for Literary RAG

Researchers introduce LitSeg, a narrative-theory-guided framework for intelligently segmenting literary documents in Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems. The method uses multi-stage prompting to identify plot events and narrative structures, with a lightweight variant (LitSeg-Lite) that distills this complexity into a single inference pass, demonstrating improved retrieval accuracy for literary RAG applications.
