H3D benchmark evaluates unsupervised text hashing for document deduplication

A new benchmark called H3D has been developed to evaluate unsupervised text hashing methods for fine-grained document deduplication, particularly for scientific documents. The benchmark compares traditional non-learning approaches like MinHash and SimHash with semantic-sensitive methods that utilize BGE embeddings. H3D assesses methods based on ranking quality, efficiency, and robustness, revealing a trade-off between lexical/structural fingerprints for near-duplicates and semantic representations for content rewriting, with the latter incurring higher computational costs.

    H3D: Benchmarking Unsupervised Text Hashing for Fine-Grained Document Deduplication

    Document hashing provides compact representations for efficient similarity search and document deduplication, but existing studies rarely compare hashing pipelines under a unified protocol for fine-grained scientific documents. H3D is an unsupervised text hashing benchmark for fi…
