CITADEL: Conditional Token Interaction via Dynamic Lexical Routing for Efficient and Effective Multi-Vector Retrieval

Minghan Li, Sheng-Chieh Lin, Barlas Oguz +5

Multi-vector retrieval methods combine the merits of sparse (e.g. BM25) and dense (e.g. DPR) retrievers and have achieved state-of-the-art performance on various retrieval tasks. T…

Bridging the Training-Inference Gap for Dense Phrase Retrieval

Gyuwan Kim, Jinhyuk Lee, Barlas Oguz +4

Building dense retrievers requires a series of standard procedures, including training and validating neural models and creating indexes for efficient search. However, these proced…
