Multi-vector dense retrieval models, such as ColBERT, achieve strong retrieval effectiveness by modelling fine-grained token-level interactions between queries and documents. Methods such as PLAID use centroid-based quantisation of each token's vector to reduce the index size and speed up retrieval while maintaining strong effectiveness.
arXiv:2606. 10716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pre-trained language models (PLMs) have achieved strong performance in keyphrase extraction (KPE), largely due to their ability to generate rich contextualized representations.

arXiv:2607. 23507v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Choosing the right text embedding model is one of the most consequential -- and most frequently under-examined -- decisions in building a retrieval or search system, yet the model that tops a leaderboard is rarely the best choice for a given deployment.

arXiv:2608. 05138v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern Greek is absent from NVIDIA's Nemotron retrieval models and from major multilingual retrieval benchmarks, despite being important for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) in legal, energy, financial, and medical applications.
