MS MARCO Web Search: a Large-scale Information-rich Web Dataset with Millions of Real Click Labels
Qi Chen, Xiubo Geng, Corby Rosset +28
Recent breakthroughs in large models have highlighted the critical significance of data scale, labels and modals. In this paper, we introduce MS MARCO Web Search, the first large-s…
Multilingual E5 Text Embeddings: A Technical Report
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +3
This technical report presents the training methodology and evaluation results of the open-source multilingual E5 text embedding models, released in mid-2023. Three embedding model…
Improving Text Embeddings with Large Language Models
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +3
In this paper, we introduce a novel and simple method for obtaining high-quality text embeddings using only synthetic data and less than 1k training steps. Unlike existing methods…
Large Search Model: Redefining Search Stack in the Era of LLMs
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +3
Modern search engines are built on a stack of different components, including query understanding, retrieval, multi-stage ranking, and question answering, among others. These compo…
Inference with Reference: Lossless Acceleration of Large Language Models
Nan Yang, Tao Ge, Liang Wang +5
We propose LLMA, an LLM accelerator to losslessly speed up Large Language Model (LLM) inference with references. LLMA is motivated by the observation that there are abundant identi…
LEAD: Liberal Feature-based Distillation for Dense Retrieval
Hao Sun, Xiao Liu, Yeyun Gong +6
Knowledge distillation is often used to transfer knowledge from a strong teacher model to a relatively weak student model. Traditional methods include response-based methods and fe…
Text Embeddings by Weakly-Supervised Contrastive Pre-training
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +5
This paper presents E5, a family of state-of-the-art text embeddings that transfer well to a wide range of tasks. The model is trained in a contrastive manner with weak supervision…
LexMAE: Lexicon-Bottlenecked Pretraining for Large-Scale Retrieval
Tao Shen, Xiubo Geng, Chongyang Tao +5
In large-scale retrieval, the lexicon-weighting paradigm, learning weighted sparse representations in vocabulary space, has shown promising results with high quality and low latenc…
SimLM: Pre-training with Representation Bottleneck for Dense Passage Retrieval
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +5
In this paper, we propose SimLM (Similarity matching with Language Model pre-training), a simple yet effective pre-training method for dense passage retrieval. It employs a simple…
CleanNet: Transfer Learning for Scalable Image Classifier Training with Label Noise
Kuang-Huei Lee, Xiaodong He, Lei Zhang +1
In this paper, we study the problem of learning image classification models with label noise. Existing approaches depending on human supervision are generally not scalable as manua…
