Semanlink - Information retrieval ; NLP tasks / problems AND Embeddings

1. synthetic queries
are generated for each passage from the target corpus (using an existing pre-trained [T5](tag:text_to_text_transfer_transformer)
encoder-decoder)
2. the generated queries are used for mining negative
passages (retrieving the most similar
paragraphs using an existing dense retrieval
model == hard negatives!)
3. the query-passage pairs are labeled by a cross-encoder and used to train the domain-adapted
dense retriever (using method described in [Hofstätter et al.,
2020](doc:2021/12/2010_02666_improving_efficien))

> - GPL: Uses doc2query to construct synthetic data and does knowledge distillation (i.e. training) on that data.
> - Doc2query: Generates queries to extend the documents and use BM25 on top of them w/o training.

Evaluating the Impact of Word Embeddings on Similarity Scoring in Practical Information Retrieval (2017)

Tags:

> Transferring the success of word embeddings to Information Retrieval (IR) task is currently an active research topic. While embedding-based retrieval models could tackle the vocabulary mismatch problem by making use of the embedding’s inherent similarity between distinct words, most of them struggle to compete with the prevalent strong baselines such as TF-IDF and BM25.

Considering a practical ad-hoc IR task composed of two steps, matching and scoring, compares the performance of several techniques that leverage word embeddings in the retrieval models to compute the similarity between the query and the documents (namely word centroid similarity, paragraph vectors, Word Mover’s distance, as well as a novel inverse document frequency (IDF) re-weighted word centroid similarity).

> We confirm that word embeddings can be successfully employed in a practical information retrieval setting. The proposed cosine similarity of IDF re-weighted, aggregated word vectors is competitive to the TF-IDF baseline.
