Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol. 1 #2bis] Why stacking a reranker on top of weak retrieval doesn’t save it, what cross-encoders actually fix vs what they don’t, and where the editorial position of the series lands. The post Rerankers Aren’t Magic Either: When the Cross-Encoder Layer Is Worth the Cost appeared first on Towards Data Science.
In this tutorial, we use zeroentropy/zerank-2-reranker, a 4B Qwen3-based cross-encoder reranker, to improve retrieval quality. We start by setting up the runtime, loading the reranker, and understanding how it scores query-document pairs. Then, we move from simple pairwise scoring to a practical two-stage retrieve-and-rerank pipeline, where a fast bi-encoder first retrieves candidates and zerank-2 reranks […] The post Design a High-Precision Retrieve-and-Rerank Pipeline with ZeroEntropy Zerank-2 Reranker appeared first on MarkTechPost.
