Train embeddings by using the Two-Tower built-in algorithm | Vertex AI

Tags:

> The Two-Tower model pairs similar types of objects, such as user profiles, search queries, web documents, answer passages, or images, in the same vector space, so that related items are close to each other. **The Two-Tower model consists of two encoder towers: the query tower and the candidate tower**. These towers embed independent items into a shared embedding space, which lets Matching Engine retrieve similarly matched items.

> To train a Two-Tower model, Google uses **pairs of relevant items**. Each pair consists of a query document and a candidate document. Documents contain arbitrary customer-defined features including text, numeric, and categorical features. After training, the Two-Tower built-in algorithm exports two TensorFlow SavedModels—a query encoder and a candidate encoder... Given a query item, Matching Engine uses the query encoder to generate a query embedding, and uses the index to find similar candidate embeddings. Matching Engine uses the candidate encoder to index all the items and serve them by using an approximate nearest neighbor solution.

[1909.10506] Learning Dense Representations for Entity Retrieval

Tags:

> We show that it is feasible to perform **entity
linking by training a dual encoder (two-tower)
model that encodes mentions and entities in
the same dense vector space**, where candidate
entities are retrieved by approximate nearest
neighbor search. Unlike prior work, **this setup
does not rely on an alias table followed by a
re-ranker, and is thus the first fully learned entity
retrieval model**.

Contributions:

> -  a dual encoder architecture for
learning entity and mention encodings suitable for
retrieval. A key feature of the architecture is that it
employs a modular **hierarchy of sub-encoders that
capture different aspects of mentions and entities**
> - a simple, fully unsupervised **hard negative
mining** strategy that produces massive gains
in retrieval performance, compared to using only
random negatives
> - high
quality candidate entities very efficiently using approximate nearest neighbor search
> - outperforms discrete retrieval
baselines like an alias table or BM25

> strong retrieval
performance across all 5.7 million Wikipedia entities in
around 3ms per mention

> since we are using a two-tower or dual
encoder architecture, **our model cannot use any kind of attention over
both mentions and entities at once**, nor feature-wise
comparisons as done by Francis-Landau et al. (2016).
This is a fairly severe constraint – for example, **we cannot
directly compare the mention span to the entity title**
– but it permits retrieval with nearest neighbor search
for the entire context against a single, all encompassing
representation for each entity
