Indeed, awesome to see another method leverage rerankers with document proximity to overcome first-stage recall limitations ๐Ÿค“
Happy to see another research group, @haike_xu working in the same direction and our SlideGAR in the BRIGHT world. However, Reranker-Guided Search is not new. There are papers like Quam (WSDM'25), ORE (SIGIR'25), ReFIT(SIGIR'25), TOUR (ACL'23) that use the ranker's guidance.

We have also released our survey paper, which unifies feedback-based (including Reranker) methods to improve the search, both in Retrieval and RAG tasks. - Test-time Corpus Feedback: From Retrieval to RAG arxiv.org/pdf/2508.15437

It was a great experience to present my work at the Glasgow IR group @ir_glasgow. This talk was based on recently accepted papers -Quam (accepted at #WSDM2025) and SlideGAR (accepted at #ECIR2025) --done in collaboration with Sean MacAvaney @macavaney and Avishek Anand @run4avi
Today, Mandeep Rathee @rathee_mandeep from the L3S Research Center @l3s_luh is giving an #IRTalk entitled "Beyond Bounded Recall: Adaptive Retrieval using Query Affinity Modelling and LLM based Rerankers". Details: samoa.dcs.gla.ac.uk/events/vโ€ฆ @GlasgowCS @ir_glasgow

I am also currently on academic job market. I am currently focusing on scaling retrieval and reasoning for complex knowledge intensive tasks. Please feel free to connect with me if these research goals interest you.
