Hybrid Batch Strategy Scaling for Multilingual Zero-Shot Retrieval on XTD

Information retrieval across different languages is an increasingly important challenge in natural language processing. Recent approaches based on multilingual pre-trained language models have achieved remarkable success, yet they often optimize for either monolingual, cross-lingual, or multilingual retrieval performance at the expense of others. This paper proposes a novel hybrid batch training strategy to simultaneously improve zero-shot retrieval performance across monolingual, cross-lingual, and multilingual settings while mitigating language bias. The approach fine-tunes multilingual lang

Research goal: What is the impact of the hybrid batch strategy on multilingual zero-shot retrieval performance when scaling the number of languages in the training batch, measured by mean reciprocal rank (MRR) on the XTD benchmark?
