Hybrid Batch Strategy Effects on MLQA Retrieval Performance

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 effect of varying the proportion of monolingual vs. cross-lingual training examples in the hybrid batch strategy on the F1 score trade-off between in-language and cross-lingual retrieval on the MLQA benchmark?
