Semantic text matching is a critical problem in information retrieval. Recently, deep learning techniques have been widely used in this area and obtained significant performance improvements. However, most models are black boxes and it is hard to understand what happened in the matching process, due to the poor interpretability of deep learning. This paper aims at tackling this problem. The key idea is to test whether existing deep text matching methods satisfy some fundamental heuristics in information retrieval. Specifically, four heuristics are used in our study, i.e., term frequency constraint, term discrimination constraint, length normalization constraints, and TF-length constraint. Since deep matching models usually contain many parameters, it is difficult to conduct a theoretical study for these complicated functions. In this paper, We propose an empirical testing method. Specifically, We first construct some queries and documents to make them satisfy the assumption in a constraint, and then test to which extend a deep text matching model trained on the original dataset satisfies the corresponding constraint. Besides, a famous attribution based interpretation method, namely integrated gradient, is adopted to conduct detailed analysis and guide for feasible improvement. Experimental results on LETOR 4.0 and MS Marco show that all the investigated deep text matching methods, both representation and interaction based methods, satisfy the above constraints with high probabilities in statistics. We further extend these constraints to the semantic settings, which are shown to be better satisfied for all the deep text matching models. These empirical findings give clear understandings on why deep text matching models usually perform well in information retrieval. We believe the proposed evaluation methodology will be useful for testing future deep text matching models.

This paper considers the task of matching images and sentences by learning a visual-textual embedding space for cross-modal retrieval. Finding such a space is a challenging task since the features and representations of text and image are not compara
ble. In this work, we introduce an end-to-end deep multimodal convolutional-recurrent network for learning both vision and language representations simultaneously to infer image-text similarity. The model learns which pairs are a match (positive) and which ones are a mismatch (negative) using a hinge-based triplet ranking. To learn about the joint representations, we leverage our newly extracted collection of tweets from Twitter. The main characteristic of our dataset is that the images and tweets are not standardized the same as the benchmarks. Furthermore, there can be a higher semantic correlation between the pictures and tweets contrary to benchmarks in which the descriptions are well-organized. Experimental results on MS-COCO benchmark dataset show that our model outperforms certain methods presented previously and has competitive performance compared to the state-of-the-art. The code and dataset have been made available publicly.
Cross-modal information retrieval aims to find heterogeneous data of various modalities from a given query of one modality. The main challenge is to map different modalities into a common semantic space, in which distance between concepts in differen
t modalities can be well modeled. For cross-modal information retrieval between images and texts, existing work mostly uses off-the-shelf Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for image feature extraction. For texts, word-level features such as bag-of-words or word2vec are employed to build deep learning models to represent texts. Besides word-level semantics, the semantic relations between words are also informative but less explored. In this paper, we model texts by graphs using similarity measure based on word2vec. A dual-path neural network model is proposed for couple feature learning in cross-modal information retrieval. One path utilizes Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) for text modeling based on graph representations. The other path uses a neural network with layers of nonlinearities for image modeling based on off-the-shelf features. The model is trained by a pairwise similarity loss function to maximize the similarity of relevant text-image pairs and minimize the similarity of irrelevant pairs. Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods significantly, with 17% improvement on accuracy for the best case.
Most approaches for similar text retrieval and ranking with long natural language queries rely at some level on queries and responses having words in common with each other. Recent applications of transformer-based neural language models to text retr
ieval and ranking problems have been very promising, but still involve a two-step process in which result candidates are first obtained through bag-of-words-based approaches, and then reranked by a neural transformer. In this paper, we introduce novel approaches for effectively applying neural transformer models to similar text retrieval and ranking without an initial bag-of-words-based step. By eliminating the bag-of-words-based step, our approach is able to accurately retrieve and rank results even when they have no non-stopwords in common with the query. We accomplish this by using bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) to create vectorized representations of sentence-length texts, along with a vector nearest neighbor search index. We demonstrate both supervised and unsupervised means of using BERT to accomplish this task.
Neural networks with deep architectures have demonstrated significant performance improvements in computer vision, speech recognition, and natural language processing. The challenges in information retrieval (IR), however, are different from these ot
her application areas. A common form of IR involves ranking of documents--or short passages--in response to keyword-based queries. Effective IR systems must deal with query-document vocabulary mismatch problem, by modeling relationships between different query and document terms and how they indicate relevance. Models should also consider lexical matches when the query contains rare terms--such as a persons name or a product model number--not seen during training, and to avoid retrieving semantically related but irrelevant results. In many real-life IR tasks, the retrieval involves extremely large collections--such as the document index of a commercial Web search engine--containing billions of documents. Efficient IR methods should take advantage of specialized IR data structures, such as inverted index, to efficiently retrieve from large collections. Given an information need, the IR system also mediates how much exposure an information artifact receives by deciding whether it should be displayed, and where it should be positioned, among other results. Exposure-aware IR systems may optimize for additional objectives, besides relevance, such as parity of exposure for retrieved items and content publishers. In this thesis, we present novel neural architectures and methods motivated by the specific needs and challenges of IR tasks.
PDM Systems contain and manage heavy amount of data but the search mechanism of most of the systems is not intelligent which can process users natural language based queries to extract desired information. Currently available search mechanisms in alm
ost all of the PDM systems are not very efficient and based on old ways of searching information by entering the relevant information to the respective fields of search forms to find out some specific information from attached repositories. Targeting this issue, a thorough research was conducted in fields of PDM Systems and Language Technology. Concerning the PDM System, conducted research provides the information about PDM and PDM Systems in detail. Concerning the field of Language Technology, helps in implementing a search mechanism for PDM Systems to search users needed information by analyzing users natural language based requests. The accomplished goal of this research was to support the field of PDM with a new proposition of a conceptual model for the implementation of natural language based search. The proposed conceptual model is successfully designed and partially implementation in the form of a prototype. Describing the proposition in detail the main concept, implementation designs and developed prototype of proposed approach is discussed in this paper. Implemented prototype is compared with respective functions of existing PDM systems .i.e., Windchill and CIM to evaluate its effectiveness against targeted challenges.
