# CoT-MAE MS-Marco Passage Reranker 

CoT-MAE is a transformers based Mask Auto-Encoder pretraining architecture designed for Dense Passage Retrieval.
**CoT-MAE MS-Marco Passage Reranker** is a reranker trained with CoT-MAE retriever mined MS-Marco hard negatives using [Tevatron](github.com/texttron/tevatron) toolkit.

Details can be found in our paper and codes.

## Scores
### MS-Marco Passage full-ranking + top-200 rerank
We first retrieve using **CoT-MAE MS-Marco Passage Retriever** (named cotmae_base_msmarco_retriever), then use reranker to re-score top-200 retrieval results. Performances are as follows.

| MRR @10 | recall@1 | recall@50 | recall@200 | QueriesRanked  |
|---------|----------|-----------|------------|----------------|
| 0.43884 | 0.304871 | 0.903582  | 0.956734   | 6980           |
