Matryoshka Hypencoder improves retrieval efficiency with adjustable Q-Net sizes

Researchers have developed the Matryoshka Hypencoder, an extension of the Hypencoder retrieval approach. This new method incorporates Matryoshka Representation Learning to support multiple sizes of Q-Nets, enabling adjustable trade-offs between retrieval effectiveness and efficiency. The Matryoshka Hypencoder demonstrates comparable in-domain effectiveness while significantly reducing active parameters, leading to a substantial increase in scoring throughput and paving the way for practical deployment.

    The Matryoshka Hypencoder

    The Hypencoder is a recently-proposed retrieval approach that encodes queries as shallow neural networks ("Q-Nets") that estimate relevance over pre-computed document embeddings. Inspired by Matryoshka Representation Learning, we show that the Hypencoder can be extended to suppor…
