What this trail covers

Cohere Rerank is an advanced retrieval model for enterprise search and RAG applications, focusing on enhancing precision and efficiency. This iteration, Rerank 3.5, represents Cohere's most powerful reranker yet, offering significant improvements in speed and accuracy for enterprise workloads. Notion integrated Cohere Rerank to improve search relevance and speed across large datasets, avoiding traditional embedding models for smaller workspaces and leveraging SageMaker for auto-scaling. The solution introduces RCP-nDCG@10, a new evaluation methodology that grades each retrieved document against explicit relevance criteria using a calibrated AI judge, designed to better reflect real-world enterprise retrieval quality and optimize next-generation search models.

All Cohere trails
  1. RCP-nDCG@10: A New Approach to Enterprise Retrieval Quality | CohereIntroduces RCP-nDCG@10, a new evaluation methodology for retrieval systems that addresses the limitations of traditional nDCG by using a calibrated AI judge to assess relevance against an explicit rubric, rather than relying solely on pre-existing, potentially incomplete, relevance labels (qrels).
