“…Despite a large body of work on neural ranking models for "traditional" ad hoc retrieval over web pages and newswire documents (Huang et al, 2013;Shen et al, 2014;Guo et al, 2016;Xiong et al, 2017;Mitra et al, 2017;Pang et al, 2017;Dai et al, 2018;McDonald et al, 2018), there has been surprisingly little work (Rao et al, 2017) on applying neural networks to searching short social media posts such as tweets on Twitter. Rao et al (2019) identified short document length, informality of language, and heterogeneous relevance signals as main challenges in relevance modeling, and proposed the first neural model specifically designed to handle these characteristics.…”
