Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have a large number of parameters and take significantly large hardware resources to compute, so edge devices struggle to run high-level networks. This paper proposes a novel method to reduce the…

Prompt tuning is a promising method to fine-tune a pre-trained language model without retraining its large-scale parameters. Instead, it attaches a soft prompt to the input text, whereby downstream tasks can be well adapted by merely…

Web search engines focus on serving highly relevant results within hundreds of milliseconds. Pre-trained language transformer models such as BERT are therefore hard to use in this scenario due to their high computational demands. We present…

A BERT-based Neural Ranking Model (NRM) can be either a crossencoder or a bi-encoder. Between the two, bi-encoder is highly efficient because all the documents can be pre-processed before the actual query time. In this work, we show two…
