New work on autoregressive language models for retrieval!

We train our model, SEAL (Search Engines with Autoregressive LMs) to produce text snippets occurring somewhere in the corpus, in relevant documents. We use the generated ngrams to rank documents in the corpus.

Thread 👇 This is the result of my internship @MetaAI. Joint work with @ot_y @PSH_Lewis @scottyih @riedelcastro @Fabio_Petroni. I couldn't have asked for a better team 💕
