Benefiting from transformer-based pre-trained language models, neural ranking models have made significant progress. More recently, the advent of multilingual pre-trained language models provides great support for designing neural cross-lingual retrieval models. However, due to unbalanced pre-training data in different languages, multilingual language models have already shown a performance gap between high and low-resource languages in many downstream tasks. And cross-lingual retrieval models built on such pre-trained models can inherit language bias, leading to suboptimal result for low-reso Research goal: How does optimal transport distillation impact the zero-shot R@1 performance of multimodal models on low-resource languages in the Flickr30k-Entities benchmark compared to standard knowledge distillation?
