What is recorded here?
Standardized cross-domain retrieval evaluation over diverse query/document forms, relevance labels and tasks, comparing lexical, dense and reranking approaches beyond their training domains.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
Original v1 has17evaluation datasets and reports MS-MARCO separately, excluding it from the zero-shot comparison; later dataset counts are not substituted. General benchmark/protocol contribution only: included biomedical corpora do not become biological or medical achievements. Dataset selection and source-reported scores are not a guarantee of all-domain robustness.
