The process of adapting retrieval models to specific tasks or datasets by training them on task-relevant examples.
More about Fine-Tuning Retrievers
Fine-Tuning Retrievers involves training retrieval models, such as bi-encoders or cross-encoders, on task-specific datasets to improve performance. Fine-tuning helps retrievers better align with the domain or context they are deployed in, enhancing relevance and accuracy.
This process is essential for optimizing systems like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and knowledge retrieval for specific applications.
