RankLLM
RankLLM is a Python toolkit for reproducible information retrieval research using rerankers, with a focus on listwise reranking. It offers a suite of rerankers, pointwise models like MonoT5, pairwise models like DuoT5, and listwise models compatible with vLLM, SGLang, or TensorRT-LLM. Additionally, it supports RankGPT and RankGemini variants, which are proprietary listwise rerankers. It includes modules for retrieval, reranking, evaluation, and response analysis, facilitating end-to-end workflows. RankLLM integrates with Pyserini for retrieval and provides integrated evaluation for multi-stage pipelines. It also includes a module for detailed analysis of input prompts and LLM responses, addressing reliability concerns with LLM APIs and non-deterministic behavior in Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models. The toolkit supports various backends, including SGLang and TensorRT-LLM, and is compatible with a wide range of LLMs.

Pinecone Rerank v0
Pinecone Rerank V0 is a cross-encoder model optimized for precision in reranking tasks, enhancing enterprise search and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems. It processes queries and documents together to capture fine-grained relevance, assigning a relevance score from 0 to 1 for each query-document pair. The model's maximum context length is set to 512 tokens to preserve ranking quality. Evaluations on the BEIR benchmark demonstrated that Pinecone Rerank V0 achieved the highest average NDCG@10, outperforming other models on 6 out of 12 datasets. For instance, it showed up to a 60% boost on the Fever dataset compared to Google Semantic Ranker and over 40% on the Climate-Fever dataset relative to cohere-v3-multilingual or voyageai-rerank-2. The model is accessible through Pinecone Inference and is available to all users in public preview.
