AR2 Project

This repo provides the code of AR2. In the paper, we propose a new Adversarial Retriever-Ranker (AR2) framework, which constructs a unified minimax game for training the retriever and ranker models interactively.

This repo is still developing, feel free to report bugs and we will fix them ~

Starting with AR2, we developed a series of Text-Retrival methods.
