BioHiCL model enhances biomedical retrieval using hierarchical contrastive learning

Researchers have developed BioHiCL, a novel approach to biomedical information retrieval that utilizes hierarchical multi-label contrastive learning. This method leverages the structured supervision from Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) to better capture semantic relationships and overlap in biomedical texts. The BioHiCL models, available in Base (0.1B parameters) and Large (0.3B parameters) versions, demonstrate strong performance on retrieval, sentence similarity, and question answering tasks while maintaining computational efficiency.

    BioHiCL: Hierarchical Multi-Label Contrastive Learning for Biomedical Retrieval with MeSH Labels

    arXiv:2604.15591v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Effective biomedical information retrieval requires modeling domain semantics and hierarchical relationships among biomedical texts. Existing biomedical generative retrievers build on coarse binary relevance signals, limit…
