Token Pooling-Aware Training for Multi-Vector Embedding Models

Token Pooling-Aware Training for Multi-Vector Embedding Models

AI summary

Multi-vector embedding models give each query token its own opportunity to find a match in a document. With pool_factor=4 , my normally trained model retains 94.6% of its unpooled NanoBEIR nDCG@10, with a 4x reduction in document vectors. Token pooling-aware training raises that retention to 97.8% at the same storage budget!

Selection record

A model scores each item twice, independently, against one written standard, out of 100. An item is admitted only when the two scores add up to twice the threshold. The threshold is set per source tier.
