Generative information retrieval (GenIR) consolidates retrieval into a single neural model that decodes document identifiers (docids) directly from queries. While this model-as-index paradigm offers architectural simplicity, it is poorly suited to dynamic document collections. Unlike modular syst...

Generative retrieval (GR) ranks documents by autoregressively generating document identifiers. Because many GR methods rely on trie-constrained beam search, they are vulnerable to early pruning of relevant prefixes under finite-beam decoding. Planning Ahead in Generative Retrieval (PAG) mitigates...
