🎄 PyTerrier Advent 24/25: Removing low-quality docs can boost search quality and cut indexing costs. Our SIGIR’24 paper QT5 trains a T5 model to filter passages at indexing time—easy to integrate, and works with dense, PISA, or SPLADE indexers too.

🎄We want to try something new and fun this year – an “Advent Calendar” of PyTerrier pipelines
We’ll kick it off with *the* baseline: BM25 on MSMARCO. One line to download a pre-built index, one line to make a BM25 retriever, one line to search.
