+This is a copy of the [Cochrane](https://huggingface.co/datasets/allenai/mslr2022) dataset, except the input source documents of its `validation` split have been replaced by a __dense__ retriever. The retrieval pipeline used:
+
+- __query__: The `target` field of each example
+- __corpus__: The union of all documents in the `train`, `validation` and `test` splits. A document is the concatenation of the `title` and `abstract`.
+- __retriever__: [`facebook/contriever-msmarco`](https://huggingface.co/facebook/contriever-msmarco) via [PyTerrier](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) with default settings
+- __top-k strategy__: `"mean"`, i.e. the number of documents retrieved, `k`, is set as the mean number of documents seen across examples in this dataset
+
+Retrieval results on the `validation` set:
