AdvancedReranker: Advanced Reranker with Learned Weights

Description

Combines multiple signals for better reranking:

  • Semantic similarity (word vectors)

  • BM25/keyword overlap

  • Query coverage

  • Position bias

  • Length normalization

Arguments

Public fields

weights

Feature weights
