Comparison of Hybrid Batch Strategy with LaBSE and XLM-R for Zero-Shot Cross-Lingual Retrieval on XTREME-R

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: How does the proposed hybrid batch strategy compare with existing multilingual retrieval models like LaBSE and XLM-R in terms of zero-shot cross-lingual retrieval accuracy on the XTREME-R benchmark?
