Query: Investigating the Successes and Failures of BERT for Passage Re-Ranking   The bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) model has
recently advanced the state-of-the-art in passage re-ranking. In this paper, we
analyze the results produced by a fine-tuned BERT model to better understand
the reasons behind such substantial improvements. To this aim, we focus on the
MS MARCO passage re-ranking dataset and provide potential reasons for the
successes and failures of BERT for retrieval. In more detail, we empirically
study a set of hypotheses and provide additional analysis to explain the
successful performance of BERT.
