This is a demonstration of PyTerrier's SPLADE package. The SPLADE model encodes queries and documents into sparse representations, which can then be used for indexing and retrieval.

Let's start by exploring SPLADE's query encoder. The query encoder is a Q→Q (query rewriting, query-to-query) transformer, and can be used in pipelines accordingly. It maps a query string into MatchOp query with terms from the query re-weighted and weighted expansion terms added.
