Speed Recall

Speed recall, the ability of a system to quickly retrieve relevant information, is a critical performance metric across diverse machine learning applications. Current research focuses on optimizing this trade-off, particularly in language models (exploring architectures like linear attention and efficient alternatives to standard attention) and approximate nearest neighbor search (employing techniques such as locality-sensitive hashing and constrained optimization for parameter tuning). Improving speed recall is crucial for enhancing the efficiency and scalability of various systems, ranging from information retrieval and image captioning to e-discovery and scene graph generation, impacting both computational resource usage and user experience.
