IR researchers @ShengyaoZhuang and @xueguangma quickly benchmarked Jev as a pointwise/pairwise/setwise/listwise reranker, reranking the top 100 BM25 results on the classic DL19 and DL20 retrieval benchmarks.
Their takeaway: Jev performs pretty well as a reranker and is cheap — a noteworthy low-cost option for RAG and information retrieval work.
