Exploring Fine-Tuning for In-Context Retrieval and Efficient KV-Caching in Long-Context Language Models

Francesco Maria Molfese, Momchil Hardalov, Rexhina Blloshmi +2

With context windows of millions of tokens, Long-Context Language Models (LCLMs) can encode entire document collections, offering a strong alternative to conventional retrieval-aug…

RAGferee: Building Contextual Reward Models for Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Andrei C. Coman, Ionut-Teodor Sorodoc, Leonardo F. R. Ribeiro +3

Existing Reward Models (RMs), typically trained on general preference data, struggle in Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) settings, which require judging responses for faithfuln…

GaRAGe: A Benchmark with Grounding Annotations for RAG Evaluation

Ionut-Teodor Sorodoc, Leonardo F. R. Ribeiro, Rexhina Blloshmi +2

We present GaRAGe, a large RAG benchmark with human-curated long-form answers and annotations of each grounding passage, allowing a fine-grained evaluation of whether LLMs can iden…

Retrieving Contextual Information for Long-Form Question Answering using Weak Supervision

Philipp Christmann, Svitlana Vakulenko, Ionut Teodor Sorodoc +2

Long-form question answering (LFQA) aims at generating in-depth answers to end-user questions, providing relevant information beyond the direct answer. However, existing retrievers…

Strong and Efficient Baselines for Open Domain Conversational Question Answering

Andrei C. Coman, Gianni Barlacchi, Adrià de Gispert

Unlike the Open Domain Question Answering (ODQA) setting, the conversational (ODConvQA) domain has received limited attention when it comes to reevaluating baselines for both effic…

From Rewriting to Remembering: Common Ground for Conversational QA Models

Marco Del Tredici, Xiaoyu Shen, Gianni Barlacchi +2

In conversational QA, models have to leverage information in previous turns to answer upcoming questions. Current approaches, such as Question Rewriting, struggle to extract releva…

Accelerating NMT Batched Beam Decoding with LMBR Posteriors for Deployment

Gonzalo Iglesias, William Tambellini, Adrià De Gispert +2

We describe a batched beam decoding algorithm for NMT with LMBR n-gram posteriors, showing that LMBR techniques still yield gains on top of the best recently reported results with…

A Comparison of Neural Models for Word Ordering

Eva Hasler, Felix Stahlberg, Marcus Tomalin +2

We compare several language models for the word-ordering task and propose a new bag-to-sequence neural model based on attention-based sequence-to-sequence models. We evaluate the m…
