On the Robustness of LLM-Based Dense Retrievers: A Systematic Analysis of Generalizability and Stability

Yongkang Li, Panagiotis Eustratiadis, Yixing Fan +1

Decoder-only large language models (LLMs) are increasingly replacing BERT-style architectures as the backbone for dense retrieval, achieving substantial performance gains and broad…

Spectral Tempering for Embedding Compression in Dense Passage Retrieval

Yongkang Li, Panagiotis Eustratiadis, Evangelos Kanoulas

Dimensionality reduction is critical for deploying dense retrieval systems at scale, yet mainstream post-hoc methods face a fundamental trade-off: principal component analysis (PCA…

Information Leakage of Sentence Embeddings via Generative Embedding Inversion Attacks

Antonios Tragoudaras, Theofanis Aslanidis, Emmanouil Georgios Lionis +2

Text data are often encoded as dense vectors, known as embeddings, which capture semantic, syntactic, contextual, and domain-specific information. These embeddings, widely adopted…

Reproducing HotFlip for Corpus Poisoning Attacks in Dense Retrieval

Yongkang Li, Panagiotis Eustratiadis, Evangelos Kanoulas

HotFlip is a topical gradient-based word substitution method for attacking language models. Recently, this method has been further applied to attack retrieval systems by generating…

Agent-centric Information Access

Evangelos Kanoulas, Panagiotis Eustratiadis, Yongkang Li +5

As large language models (LLMs) become more specialized, we envision a future where millions of expert LLMs exist, each trained on proprietary data and excelling in specific domain…
