Breaking Flat: A Generalised Query Performance Prediction Evaluation Framework

Payel Santra, Partha Basuchowdhuri, Debasis Ganguly

The traditional use-case of query performance prediction (QPP) is to identify which queries perform well and which perform poorly for a given ranking model. A more fine-grained and…

Beyond Correlations: A Downstream Evaluation Framework for Query Performance Prediction

Payel Santra, Partha Basuchowdhuri, Debasis Ganguly

The standard practice of query performance prediction (QPP) evaluation is to measure a set-level correlation between the estimated retrieval qualities and the true ones. However, n…

HF-RAG: Hierarchical Fusion-based RAG with Multiple Sources and Rankers

Payel Santra, Madhusudan Ghosh, Debasis Ganguly +2

Leveraging both labeled (input-output associations) and unlabeled data (wider contextual grounding) may provide complementary benefits in retrieval augmented generation (RAG). Howe…
