The PLAID (Performance-optimized Late Interaction Driver) algorithm for ColBERTv2 uses clustered term representations to retrieve and progressively prune documents for final (exact) document scoring. In this paper, we reproduce and fill in…
Document retrieval identifies relevant documents but does not provide fine-grained evidence cues, such as specific relevant spans. A possible solution is to apply an LLM after retrieval; however, this introduces significant computational…
Dense retrieval models usually adopt vectors from the last hidden layer of the document encoder to represent a document, which is in contrast to the fact that representations in different layers of a pre-trained language model usually…
