Models: BM25 on segmented documents with doc2query-T5 expansions
This page describes experiments, integrated into Anserini's regression testing framework, on the TREC 2021 Deep Learning Track document ranking task using the MS MARCO V2 segmented document collection (with doc2query-T5 expansions).
Note that the NIST relevance judgments provide far more relevant documents per topic, unlike the "sparse" judgments provided by Microsoft (these are sometimes called "dense" judgments to emphasize this contrast). For additional instructions on working with MS MARCO V2 document collection, refer to this page.
Note that there are four different bag-of-words regression conditions for this task, and this page describes the following:
- Indexing Condition: each segment in the MS MARCO V2 segmented document collection is treated as a unit of indexing
- Expansion Condition: doc2query-T5
The exact configurations for these regressions are stored in this YAML file. Note that this page is automatically generated from this template as part of Anserini's regression pipeline, so do not modify this page directly; modify the template instead.
From one of our Waterloo servers (e.g., orca
), the following command will perform the complete regression, end to end:
python src/main/python/run_regression.py --index --verify --search --regression dl21-doc-segmented-d2q-t5
Typical indexing command:
target/appassembler/bin/IndexCollection \
-collection MsMarcoV2DocCollection \
-input /path/to/msmarco-v2-doc-segmented-d2q-t5 \
-index indexes/lucene-index.msmarco-v2-doc-segmented-d2q-t5/ \
-generator DefaultLuceneDocumentGenerator \
-threads 24 -storeRaw \
>& logs/log.msmarco-v2-doc-segmented-d2q-t5 &
The value of -input
should be a directory containing the compressed jsonl
files that comprise the corpus.
See this page for additional details.
For additional details, see explanation of common indexing options.
Topics and qrels are stored here, which is linked to the Anserini repo as a submodule. The regression experiments here evaluate on the 57 topics for which NIST has provided judgments as part of the TREC 2021 Deep Learning Track. The original data can be found here.
After indexing has completed, you should be able to perform retrieval as follows:
