Domain-Adaptive Dense Retrieval for Brazilian Legal Search
Jayr Pereira, Roberto Lotufo, Luiz Bonifacio
Brazilian legal retrieval is heterogeneous, covering case law, legislation, and question-based search. This makes training dense retrievers a trade-off between stronger domain spec…
JUÁ -- A Benchmark for Information Retrieval in Brazilian Legal Text Collections
Jayr Pereira, Leandro Fernandes, Erick de Brito +2
Legal information retrieval in Portuguese remains difficult to evaluate systematically because available datasets differ widely in document type, query style, and relevance definit…
InPars Toolkit: A Unified and Reproducible Synthetic Data Generation Pipeline for Neural Information Retrieval
Hugo Abonizio, Luiz Bonifacio, Vitor Jeronymo +3
Recent work has explored Large Language Models (LLMs) to overcome the lack of training data for Information Retrieval (IR) tasks. The generalization abilities of these models have…
InPars-v2: Large Language Models as Efficient Dataset Generators for Information Retrieval
Vitor Jeronymo, Luiz Bonifacio, Hugo Abonizio +4
Recently, InPars introduced a method to efficiently use large language models (LLMs) in information retrieval tasks: via few-shot examples, an LLM is induced to generate relevant q…
In Defense of Cross-Encoders for Zero-Shot Retrieval
Guilherme Rosa, Luiz Bonifacio, Vitor Jeronymo +4
Bi-encoders and cross-encoders are widely used in many state-of-the-art retrieval pipelines. In this work we study the generalization ability of these two types of architectures on…
NeuralSearchX: Serving a Multi-billion-parameter Reranker for Multilingual Metasearch at a Low Cost
Thales Sales Almeida, Thiago Laitz, João Seródio +3
The widespread availability of search API's (both free and commercial) brings the promise of increased coverage and quality of search results for metasearch engines, while decreasi…
No Parameter Left Behind: How Distillation and Model Size Affect Zero-Shot Retrieval
Guilherme Moraes Rosa, Luiz Bonifacio, Vitor Jeronymo +4
Recent work has shown that small distilled language models are strong competitors to models that are orders of magnitude larger and slower in a wide range of information retrieval…
