Phase 2 - Cross-Domain Validation (BEIR)

Test whether Phase 1 techniques transfer across domains. Result: BGE hybrid is universal (the ARCH-0.5 core); keyword rerankers are domain-conditional; learning-to-rank is portfolio.

BEIR benchmark BEIR project

Heterogeneous IR benchmark. Phase 2 baselined all 15 public datasets (BM25 avg nDCG@10 0.4261, on the published ~0.43) and classified techniques cross-domain: the BGE hybrid is universal (ARCH-0.5 core), keyword rerankers are domain-conditional, learning-to-rank is portfolio.
