| Challenge: | Existing methods to train dense passage retrieval have a large data gap between upstream and downstream relevance. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to pre-train the dense retriever with the text relevance induced by hyperlinks within Web documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms existing methods under different scenarios and in the open-domain question answering domain. |

| Challenge: | Existing privacy protection methods fail to cover context-dependent sensitive information and are prone to performance degradation. |
| Approach: | They propose a Layer-wise Relevance Propagation-driven framework for efficient privacy neuron detection and editing. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves 80% higher efficiency than gradient attribution methods while reducing leakage risks of Phone, Email, and medical privacy by 42.7%–73.5% on average and cutting computational time by 60%–90%. |
