摘要
Multi-page Document Visual Question Answering requires reasoning over semantics, layouts, and visual elements in long, visually dense documents. Existing OCR-free methods face a trade-off between capacity and precision: end-to-end models scale poorly with document length, while visual retrieval-based pipelines are brittle and passive. We propose Doc-V^*, an OCR-free agentic framework that casts multi-page DocVQA as sequential evidence aggregation. Doc-V^* begins with a thumbnail overview, then actively navigates via semantic retrieval and targeted page fetching, and aggregates evidence in a structured working memory for grounded reasoning. Trained by imitation learning from expert trajectories and further optimized with Group Relative Policy Optimization, Doc-V^* balances answer accuracy with evidence-seeking efficiency. Across five benchmarks, Doc-V^* outperforms open-source baselines and approaches proprietary models, improving out-of-domain performance by up to 47.9% over RAG baseline. Other results reveal effective evidence aggregation with selective attention, not increased input pages.
