BREEZE (Balanced Research and Expert Engagement for Zonal Exploration)

A streamlined research system that generates comprehensive Wikipedia-style articles through multi-perspective expert engagement and focused topic exploration.

Overview

BREEZE is inspired by STORM (Synthesis of Topic Outlines through Retrieval and Multi-perspective Question Asking) developed by Shao et al. While STORM focuses on broad research capabilities, BREEZE refines this approach specifically for Wikipedia-style article generation with:

• Streamlined architecture focused on article generation
• Enhanced topic validation and scoping
• Structured expert interview process
• Robust citation handling and fact-checking

Features

• Balanced Multi-Perspective Research:

  • Simulates conversations between diverse subject matter experts
  • Ensures comprehensive coverage of different viewpoints
  • Maintains neutrality in topic exploration

• Expert Interview System:

  • Conducts focused interviews with AI experts
  • Gathers detailed information and citations
  • Validates information through cross-referencing

• Structured Article Generation:

  • Creates well-organized articles with:
    • Clear section outlines
    • Proper citations and references
    • Consistent writing style
    • Wikipedia-style formatting

• Zonal Topic Exploration:

  • Efficiently scopes and defines research boundaries
  • Maintains focus on relevant subject areas
  • Ensures appropriate depth of coverage

How It Works

1. Topic Input and Validation

   • Submit your research topic
   • System validates and scopes the subject area
   • Establishes clear research boundaries

2. Research and Synthesis

   • Generates structured outline
   • Creates expert personas for different perspectives
   • Conducts targeted expert interviews
   • Refines outline based on gathered insights

3. Article Generation

   • Writes section drafts
   • Integrates expert insights
   • Adds proper citations
   • Delivers polished final article

Example Topics

• Technical: "Impact of Large Language Models on Software Development"
• Business: "The Rise of AI-Powered Customer Service"
• General: "History and Evolution of Electric Vehicles"

Limitations

• Quality depends on available online sources
• May require topic refinement for very broad subjects
• Citations limited to publicly accessible sources

BREEZE builds upon the innovative foundation laid by STORM (Shao et al.), as documented in the LangGraph documentation. We've refined their approach of outline-driven research and multi-perspective conversations while adding specialized enhancements for Wikipedia-style article generation.
