Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use the reader-inherited RINK reranker combined with the instance-level reranker | Retriever-Reranker-Reader on OTT-QA · OTT-QA blind test | EM: 34.5 -> 35.5 | Helped |
| Use the reader-inherited RINK reranker combined with the instance-level reranker | Retriever-Reranker-Reader on OTT-QA · OTT-QA blind test | F1: 40.4 -> 41.5 | Helped |
| Add set-level RINK to the instance-level reranker | OTT-QA retrieval · OTT-QA dev | R@5: 77.4 -> 80.6 | Helped |
| Add set-level RINK to the instance-level reranker | OTT-QA retrieval · OTT-QA dev | R@1: 65.0 -> 66.9 | Helped |
| Pretrain the retriever encoder on augmented table-text data (ablation) | Retriever on OTT-QA · OTT-QA dev | R@5: 66.2 -> 70.2 | Helped |
| Pretrain the retriever encoder on augmented table-text data (ablation) | FiD QA system · OTT-QA blind test | EM: 28.5 -> 30.1 | Helped |
| Pretrain the retriever encoder on augmented table-text data (ablation) | RINK QA system · OTT-QA blind test | EM: 33.8 -> 35.5 | Helped |
| Increase RINK set sampling from K = 6 to K = 30 (ablation) | RINK with M = 15, α = 0 · OTT-QA dev | R@15: 82.8 -> 83.7 | Helped |
| Increase RINK set sampling from K = 6 to K = 30 (ablation) | RINK with M = 15, α = 0 · OTT-QA dev | EM: 33.4 -> 34.6 | Helped |
| Combine set-level RINK with the instance-level reranker instead of using RINK alone (ablation) | RINK with M = 15 · OTT-QA dev | R@15: 83.7 -> 85.5 | Helped |
| Set α to 0.7, combining the two rerankers (ablation) | RINK with M = 10 · OTT-QA dev | EM: 35.2 -> 36.7 | Helped |
