Abstract

An example system includes a processor to receive a query. The processor can retrieve ranked candidates from an index based on the query. The processor can re-rank the ranked candidates using a Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) query-question (Q-q) model trained to match queries to questions of a frequently asked question (FAQ) dataset, wherein the BERT Q-q model is fine-tuned using paraphrases generated for the questions in the FAQ dataset. The processor can return the re-ranked candidates in response to the query.
