• Abstract summary: We propose GandR, a retrieval procedure that retrieves exemplars for which outputs are also similar. GandR first generates a preliminary prediction with input-based retrieval. Then, it retrieves exemplars with outputs similar to the preliminary prediction which are used to generate a final prediction.

• Abstract: A common recent approach to semantic parsing augments sequence-to-sequence models by retrieving and appending a set of training samples, called exemplars. The effectiveness of this recipe is limited by the ability to retrieve informative exemplars that help produce the correct parse, which is especially challenging in low-resource settings. Existing retrieval is commonly based on similarity of query and exemplar inputs. We propose GandR, a retrieval procedure that retrieves exemplars for which outputs are also similar. GandRfirst generates a preliminary prediction with input-based retrieval. Then, it retrieves exemplars with outputs similar to the preliminary prediction which are used to generate a final prediction. GandR sets the state of the art on multiple low-resource semantic parsing tasks.

  Generative retrieval uses differentiable search indexes to directly generate relevant document identifiers in response to a query. Recent studies have highlighted the potential of a strong generative retrieval model, trained with carefully crafted pre-training tasks, to enhance downstream retrieval tasks via fine-tuning. We introduce BootRet, a bootstrapped pre-training method for generative retrieval that dynamically adjusts document identifiers during pre-training to accommodate the continuing of the corpus.

  We propose a novel End-to-end Trainable Retrieval-Augmented Generation (ETRAG) ETRAG allows end-to-end optimization of the entire model, including the retriever, for the relation extraction objective. We evaluate the relation extraction performance of ETRAG on the TACRED dataset, which is a standard benchmark for relation extraction.

  We consider the task of paraphrased text-to-image retrieval where a model aims to return similar results given a pair of paraphrased queries. We train a dual-encoder model starting from a language model pretrained on a large text corpus. Compared to public dual-encoder models such as CLIP and OpenCLIP, the model trained with our best adaptation strategy achieves a significantly higher ranking similarity for paraphrased queries.

• Generative Retrieval as Multi-Vector Dense Retrieval [71.75503049199897]
  Generative retrieval generates identifiers of relevant documents in an end-to-end manner. Prior work has demonstrated that generative retrieval with atomic identifiers is equivalent to single-vector dense retrieval. We show that generative retrieval and multi-vector dense retrieval share the same framework for measuring the relevance to a query of a document.

  Often-overlooked design choice is the retrieval unit in which the corpus is indexed, e.g. document, passage, or sentence. We introduce a novel retrieval unit, proposition, for dense retrieval. Experiments reveal that indexing a corpus by fine-grained units such as propositions significantly outperforms passage-level units in retrieval tasks.

  We propose a novel generative retrieval approach, where the retrieval model autoregressively decodes the identifiers of the target candidates. To that end, we create semantically meaningful of codewords to serve as a Semantic ID for each item. We show that recommender systems trained with the proposed paradigm significantly outperform the current SOTA models on various datasets.
