🚨🚨🚨Tutorial Recording Alert!🚨🚨🚨
We just released the recording of our tutorial titled:
Unbiased Learning to Rank: On Recent Advances in the Foundations and Applications
youtu.be/fcqCkjgOnJ8
Originally presented at the #SIGIR2023, #FIRE2023 and #WSDM2024 conferences.
Join us for Search Engines Amsterdam this Friday at 4pm CEST! @snbruch (Pinecone) and @HansiZeng (UMass) will join us and discuss recent innovations in search indexing for dense retrieval and in generative IR.

With @maliannejadi, we presented our poster this week at @naacl. Excited to share our latest findings and engage with the NLP community #NAACL2024 #NLPresearch.
Glad to share that our paper: "Context Does Matter: Implications for Crowdsourced Evaluation Labels in Task-Oriented Dialogue Systems" has been accepted at #NAACL2024! with @maliannejadi and @mdr.
Join us next Friday, June 28th, for our last SEA meet-up before the summer break! 🎉
@snbruch (Pinecone) and @HansiZeng (UMass Amherst) will discuss recent innovations in search indexing for dense retrieval and in scaling generative IR.

🧵We just released a large-scale reproducibility effort on unbiased learning-to-rank (ULTR). It turned out that ULTR did not work as intended ... or at least that its success depends on how your measure success.
Many thanks to Philipp Hager, @JMRenders, Onno Zoeter, @mdr

1/4 Interested in fine-tuning open-source LLMs to generate relevance judgments?
Check out our paper “Query Performance Prediction using Relevance Judgments Generated by Large Language Models” w/ @NegarEmpr @arian_ask @maliannejadi @mdr
Paper at: arxiv.org/abs/2404.01012 – at Amsterdam, The Netherlands

🚀 Can we rely on LLMs’ internal knowledge to answer complex questions? 🚀
In our recent work with @maliannejadi, we propose a method for generating multiple queries to cover different aspects of the user’s information needs.
The paper is available:
