Context

This repository contains a solution to a Kaggle competition of Distributed Information Systems course of EPFL. The competition is about Text Retrieval, where models are automatically evaluated by their document retrieval and reranking power.

Approach

We describe our approach in our report (report/Report.pdf), as well us our final submission notebook (src/kaggle.ipynb). Briefly, we utilize BM25+ to retrieve a big set of relevant documents and rerank them using BERT Sentence embeddings.
