Reproducibility study confirms Hypencoder's non-linear query-specific scoring improves retrieval over bi-encoders on standard benchmarks but standard methods remain faster and hard-task results are mixed due to implementation issues.
Reproducing GAR on BRIGHT shows it boosts reasoning-intensive retrieval effectiveness with low overhead when the reranker's signal quality is strong.
