MESH: Scaling Up Retrieval with Heterogeneous Content Unification

Optimizing large-scale retrieval hinges on the ability to efficiently surface candidates across diverse content tiers. However, to capture segments such as fresh and long-tail content, modern systems typically resort to a fragmented "zoo" of specialized retrieval models. This operational complexity is attributed to a fundamental challenge in heterogeneous retrieval systems, the Scaling Bias of Heterogeneity, where model capacity gains do not apply equally across diverse content tiers. To bridge…
