  1. LLM2Vec: Large Language Models Are Secretly Powerful Text Encoders (2024 · 209 citations)
    Decoder-only LLMs lead most NLP benchmarks, but they are rarely used as text embedders. One reason is causal attention, which lets each token see only its left context. The authors propose LLM2Vec, an unsupervised, label-free recipe that turns any decoder-only model into a general-purpose encoder in three stages.…
  2. Evaluating Correctness and Faithfulness of Instruction-Following Models for Question Answering (2024 · 145 citations)
    Instruction-following LLMs can answer questions when given retrieved passages and a task instruction, with no extra training.
  3. TopiOCQA: Open-domain Conversational Question Answering with Topic Switching (2022 · 143 citations)
    Benchmarks for conversational question answering (CQA), such as CoQA and QuAC, give the system a fixed reference passage and keep each dialogue on a single subject.
