Entity signals cover only 19.7% of relevant documents on Robust04 and no configuration among 443 systems improves MAP by more than 0.05 in open-world evaluation, despite gains when entities are pre-restricted.
PETRA is a curated 1.36M-chunk petroleum-engineering retrieval dataset and pipeline that raises in-domain nDCG from 0.703 to 0.763 via score fusion and delivers 44% relative gain on an Earth Science benchmark through reranker adaptation on synthetic supervision.
