Abstract
This paper introduces CO-Search, a semantic search engine designed to efficiently retrieve relevant information from the vast COVID-19 literature. CO-Search uses a multi-stage approach, combining a hybrid semantic-keyword retriever with a re-ranker that leverages question answering and abstractive summarization. The system achieves strong performance on the TREC-COVID challenge, demonstrating its effectiveness in handling complex queries and mitigating misinformation.
