Researchers have developed a unified multi-task relevance modeling framework for e-commerce, aiming to consolidate six distinct entity pair relationship tasks into a single model. This approach contrasts with current industry practices that use separate models for each task, which can lead to knowledge transfer limitations and inconsistent relevance signals. The study systematically compares three task routing architectures—text prefix routing, multi-head classification, and multi-head with private transformer layers—across LoRA-adapted LLMs and fully fine-tuned cross-encoders. The MHP Ensemble, utilizing private layers, achieved the highest accuracy at 89.96% on over 450K test examples, demonstrating superior performance and addressing an observed asymmetry in task identity encoding between encoder-decoder models and cross-encoders.
