Dense Hierarchical Retrieval for Open-domain Question Answering (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Dense neural text retrieval has achieved promising results on open-domain Question Answering (QA) current dense retrievers require splitting documents into short passages that usually contain local, partial and sometimes biased context, and may yield inaccurate and misleading hidden representations, thus deteriorating the final retrieval result. |
| Approach: | They propose a hierarchical framework which can generate accurate dense representations of passages by utilizing both macroscopic semantics in the document and microscopic specific to each passage. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework significantly outperforms the original dense passage retriever and helps an end-to-end QA system outperfect the strong baselines on multiple open-domain QA benchmarks. |
Hybrid Hierarchical Retrieval for Open-Domain Question Answering (2023.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent work shows that dense hierarchical retrieval (DHR) can outperform dense passage retrieval. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that applies sparse, dense and a combination of them to document and passage retrieval. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework can outperform dense hierarchical retrieval (DHR) and sparse retrievers (BM25) on open-domain question answering (ODQA) datasets with an average improvement of 4.69% on recall@100 over DHR. |
