Reranking

Reranking: Reordering a limited candidate set with a more accurate model than the initial retrieval stage. The first stage favors recall and speed; the second reads query and document more carefully. Cross-encoders and LLMs can improve precision at the cost of latency.

The first stage favors recall and speed; the second reads query and document more carefully. Cross-encoders and LLMs can improve precision at the cost of latency.
