Graph RAG for Causal Structure Extraction: Matrix Methods for Multi-Hop Retrieval with Evidence Cohesion

How organizational knowledge graphs enable responsibility chain tracing and risk concentration detection

Standard RAG often retrieves flat document chunks that under-represent relational structure needed for causal and responsibility reasoning. Graph RAG models documents and entities as nodes in an adjacency matrix, enabling multi-hop retrieval along causal paths in organizational knowledge. We formalize an h-hop diffusion score, derive hop-depth choices from a noise-accuracy tradeoff, and introduce an evidence-cohesion metric that gates response generation by subgraph density. In contract-corpus evaluations, the method reported 73.4% causal-path extraction accuracy at 3 hops, a 31% improvement over flat Top-k RAG for responsibility-chain identification, and `r = 0.87` correlation between cohesion score and response correctness.
