Researchers have developed KSE-Web, a system designed to improve semantic search for the Khmer language, which faces challenges due to limited data and mixed language usage. The study evaluated various retrieval methods, including BM25, dense retrieval, and hybrid approaches, alongside LLM-assisted query expansion using Qwen2.5 models. Results indicated that traditional BM25 performed best, with hybrid methods showing comparable effectiveness. While LLM expansion did not universally improve results, larger Qwen2.5 models showed promise, though direct expansion also introduced issues like topic drift and noise. AI
