| Challenge: | Recent work on generative ranking models for Information Retrieval has focused on discriminative methods that learn a similarity function to compare questions and candidates answers. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a language model to train a ranking function that model the semantic similarity of documents and queries instead of discriminative ranking functions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approaches are as effective as state-of-the-art discriminative models for the answer selection task and show unlikelihood losses are reduced for IR. |
