DualView: Adaptive Local-Global Fusion for Multi-Hop Document Reranking
The paper presents a new framework called DualView for multi-hop document reranking, which is essential for effective question answering. It combines local and global scoring mechanisms to enhance the identification of relevant documents while maintaining high recall. The model demonstrates superior performance compared to existing methods, achieving high accuracy and low latency.
- ▪DualView employs a Local Scorer for fine-grained query-document relevance using stacked cross-attention.
- ▪A Global Scorer models inter-document dependencies through Transformer-based context aggregation.
- ▪The model achieves 99.4% Top-4 Recall and 97.8% Full Hit accuracy at a latency of 4.0 ms, outperforming larger cross-encoders.

A fundamental challenge lies in efficiently identifying the minimal relevant document set from retrieved candidates while maintaining high recall. We present an efficient dual-view cascaded reranking framework for multi-hop document reranking.
