• Abstract: While question-like queries are gaining popularity and search engines' users increasingly adopt them, keyphrase search has traditionally been the cornerstone of web search. This query type is also prevalent in specialised search tasks such as academic or professional search, where experts rely on keyphrases to articulate their information needs. However, current dense retrieval models often fail with keyphrase-like queries, primarily because they are mostly trained on question-like ones. This paper introduces a novel model that employs the ColBERT architecture to enhance document ranking for keyphrase queries. For that, given the lack of large keyphrase-based retrieval datasets, we first explore how Large Language Models can convert question-like queries into keyphrase format. Then, using those keyphrases, we train a keyphrase-based ColBERT ranker (ColBERTKP_QD) to improve the performance when working with keyphrase queries. Furthermore, to reduce the training costs associated with training the full ColBERT model, we investigate the feasibility of training only a keyphrase query encoder while keeping the document encoder weights static (ColBERTKP_Q). We assess our proposals' ranking performance using both automatically generated and manually annotated keyphrases. Our results reveal the potential of the late interaction architecture when working under the keyphrase search scenario.

  We propose an approach to enhance query understanding by augmenting queries with rich contextual signals. We use web search titles and snippets to ground queries in real-world information and utilize GPT-4 to generate query rewrites and explanations. Our context-aware approach substantially outperforms context-free models.

  List K-kNN spatial keyword queries (TkQs) return a list of objects based on a ranking function that considers both spatial and textual relevance. There are two key challenges in building an effective and efficient index, i.e., the absence of high-quality labels and the unbalanced results. We develop a novel pseudolabel generation technique to address the two challenges.

  Keyphrase provides accurate information of document content that is highly compact, concise, full of meanings, and widely used for discourse comprehension, organization, and text retrieval. We propose textitkeyphrase completion (KPC) to generate more keyphrases for document (e.g. scientific publication) taking advantage of document content along with a very limited number of known keyphrases. We name it textitdeep keyphrase completion (DKPC) since it attempts to capture the deep semantic meaning of the document content together with known keyphrases via a deep learning framework
