Join Aamir Shakir, CEO of Mixedbread, for an in-depth session on boosting retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and search performance using the new mxbai-rerank-v2 models. These open-source reranking models, released under the Apache 2.0 license, represent the latest advancements in retrieval quality—foundational for effective AI and RAG systems.
In this talk, Aamir will walk through the performance breakthroughs enabled by reinforcement learning-based training, highlight benchmark-leading results, and share implementation guidance to help you improve search relevance in your own systems.
What we’ll cover:
Model Overview & Release: Introduction to mxbai-rerank-v2, open-source availability, and Mixedbread’s mission for simplifying AI integration
Training Approach: How reinforcement learning techniques drive performance gains across multilingual text, code, and tool retrieval tasks
Benchmark Results: Detailed analysis of how mxbai-rerank-v2 compares to leading rerankers across a range of retrieval scenarios
System Integration Guidance: Best practices for deploying these models to boost retrieval quality and relevance in your applications
Enterprise Use Cases: Real-world benefits of improved retrieval in enterprise AI systems, including better knowledge access and workflow efficiency
This session is designed to equip you with the tools and understanding to integrate high-performance retrieval into your AI stack and accelerate the effectiveness of your RAG systems.
