About this paper

Glance integrates reranking and generation into a single backbone using lightweight adapters and pointer heads to score passages from shared context, reducing memory overhead while improving retrieval and answer quality.

Retrieval-augmented generation commonly serves separate models for reranking and answering, duplicating model residency and passage processing. We introduce Glance, which equips the generator with a lightweight decision adapter and pointer head to score candidate passages from a shared prefill. Short relevance probes branch from the cached context, producing one score per passage without separately prefilling each query-passage pair. A single resident 9B backbone supports generation, general decisions and reranking, with approximately 0.1 GiB of additional memory per decision skill. After 39 minutes of MS MARCO fine-tuning, Glance achieves nDCG@10 of 0.741 on SciFact and 0.345 on NFCorpus,…
