Traditional search engines struggle to synthesize fragmented information for complex queries, while generative AI search engines face challenges in relevance, comprehensiveness, and presentation. To address these limitations, we introduce Xinyu AI Search, a novel system that incorporates a query-decomposition graph to dynamically break down complex queries into sub-queries, enabling stepwise retrieval and generation. Our retrieval pipeline enhances diversity through multi-source aggregation and query expansion, while filtering and re-ranking strategies optimize passage relevance. Additionally, Xinyu AI Search introduces a novel approach for fine-grained, precise built-in citation and innovates in result presentation by integrating timeline visualization and textual-visual choreography. Evaluated on recent real-world queries, Xinyu AI Search outperforms eight existing technologies in human assessments, excelling in relevance, comprehensiveness, and insightfulness. Ablation studies validate the necessity of its key sub-modules. Our work presents the first comprehensive framework for generative AI search engines, bridging retrieval, generation, and user-centric presentation.

Treatment planning in precision oncology requires synthesizing heterogeneous patient information with rapidly evolving clinical guidelines to ensure guideline-concordant care. While large language models (LLMs) show promise in many diagnostic tasks, their adoption for high-stakes treatment planning is hindered by complex reasoning, adherence to timely clinical guidelines, and safety concerns. In this study, we present GatorOnco, an agentic LLM for colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment planning. GatorOnco is developed using a total of 282 billion tokens of biomedical text, including healthcare system-scale clinical text comprising 166 billion tokens from UF Health. We implemented a domain-adaptation method that integrates pre-training, model merging, a two-stage post-training approach, and agent-based reinforcement learning. An agentic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) approach dynamically integrates time-sensitive clinical guidelines into the reasoning process. In a blind, randomized clinical evaluation conducted by five UF Health oncologists, GatorOnco significantly outperformed open-source LLMs (P<0.01) and achieved expert-level performance comparable to UF Health oncologists. Compared with expert oncologists, GatorOnco received significantly higher ratings for readability (4.46 vs. 4.19, P<0.01) and completeness (3.91 vs. 3.52, P<0.01), while showing statistically comparable performance in correctness (4.09 vs. 4.11, P = 0.921), currency (4.04 vs. 3.98, P = 0.478), and safety (4.22 vs. 4.22, P = 0.999). These findings demonstrate that integrating agentic reasoning with large-scale domain adaptation can help bridge the gap for generative AI in high-stakes cancer treatment planning.
