On the Evaluation of Machine-Generated Reports
James Mayfield, Eugene Yang, Dawn Lawrie +10
Large Language Models (LLMs) have enabled new ways to satisfy information needs. Although great strides have been made in applying them to settings like document ranking and short-…
Language Fairness in Multilingual Information Retrieval
Eugene Yang, Thomas Jänich, James Mayfield +1
Multilingual information retrieval (MLIR) considers the problem of ranking documents in several languages for a query expressed in a language that may differ from any of those lang…
Distillation for Multilingual Information Retrieval
Eugene Yang, Dawn Lawrie, James Mayfield
Recent work in cross-language information retrieval (CLIR), where queries and documents are in different languages, has shown the benefit of the Translate-Distill framework that tr…
PLAID SHIRTTT for Large-Scale Streaming Dense Retrieval
Dawn Lawrie, Efsun Kayi, Eugene Yang +2
PLAID, an efficient implementation of the ColBERT late interaction bi-encoder using pretrained language models for ranking, consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance in mo…
Efficiency-Effectiveness Tradeoff of Probabilistic Structured Queries for Cross-Language Information Retrieval
Eugene Yang, Suraj Nair, Dawn Lawrie +3
Probabilistic Structured Queries (PSQ) is a cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) method that uses translation probabilities statistically derived from aligned corpora. PSQ i…
Extending Translate-Train for ColBERT-X to African Language CLIR
Eugene Yang, Dawn J. Lawrie, Paul McNamee +1
This paper describes the submission runs from the HLTCOE team at the CIRAL CLIR tasks for African languages at FIRE 2023. Our submissions use machine translation models to translat…
