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…

Synthetic Cross-language Information Retrieval Training Data

James Mayfield, Eugene Yang, Dawn Lawrie +5

A key stumbling block for neural cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) systems has been the paucity of training data. The appearance of the MS MARCO monolingual training set…

Parameter-efficient Zero-shot Transfer for Cross-Language Dense Retrieval with Adapters

Eugene Yang, Suraj Nair, Dawn Lawrie +2

A popular approach to creating a zero-shot cross-language retrieval model is to substitute a monolingual pretrained language model in the retrieval model with a multilingual pretra…

C3: Continued Pretraining with Contrastive Weak Supervision for Cross Language Ad-Hoc Retrieval

Eugene Yang, Suraj Nair, Ramraj Chandradevan +2

Pretrained language models have improved effectiveness on numerous tasks, including ad-hoc retrieval. Recent work has shown that continuing to pretrain a language model with auxili…

Transfer Learning Approaches for Building Cross-Language Dense Retrieval Models

Suraj Nair, Eugene Yang, Dawn Lawrie +5

The advent of transformer-based models such as BERT has led to the rise of neural ranking models. These models have improved the effectiveness of retrieval systems well beyond that…

Cross-language Information Retrieval

Petra Galuščáková, Douglas W. Oard, Suraj Nair

Two key assumptions shape the usual view of ranked retrieval: (1) that the searcher can choose words for their query that might appear in the documents that they wish to see, and (…
