Quantifying and Expanding the Theoretical Capacity of Late-Interaction Retrieval Models
This paper quantifies and expands the theoretical capacity of late-interaction retrieval models, showing that MaxSim can replicate inner products between non-negative vectors and proposing Signed MaxSim for arbitrary real-valued vectors, revealing a representation gap between inner product and late-interaction models.
