The classical cascading pipeline of retrieve--rerank suffers from a bounded recall problem, stemming from limitations of the first-stage retriever. Most current approaches address the bounded recall problem by improving the first-stage retriever, but this incurs substantial training and inference...

Modern retrieval pipelines increasingly rely on query reformulation and neural reranking to improve effectiveness, but this comes at a significant computational cost and introduces a fundamental tradeoff between recall and query drift. Generating many reformulated queries can substantially increa...
