RankGPT

Stub. Created as a placeholder — not currently referenced in the vault (net-new concept).

Definition

RankGPT is a listwise LLM reranker that prompts an instruction-tuned LLM to reorder a candidate list directly (permutation generation), typically using a sliding-window strategy to handle lists longer than the context window. No fine-tuning required.

  • Cite the source paper; contrast with fine-tuned RankLLaMA and pointwise LLM judging.
