Relevance Encoding Network

Relevance encoding networks (RENs) aim to efficiently and accurately determine the relevance between data points, such as matching queries to products or images to answers. Current research focuses on developing efficient architectures like two-tower models and incorporating techniques such as bag-of-words representations and temporal invariance to improve speed and interpretability while handling data shifts and biases. These advancements are crucial for improving performance in applications like e-commerce search, recommendation systems, and knowledge graph reasoning, where efficient and accurate relevance scoring is paramount.
