HARNESS-LM (HLM) is a three-phase training framework for transferring the capabilities of large-scale retrievers into compact, cost-efficient models: (1) train a high-performance reference ('teacher') retriever by fine-tuning a billion-parameter-scale SLM; (2) align query representations via an L2 objective to distill knowledge into a sub-600M parameter student encoder; (3) apply a final contrastive refinement stage to optimize the student for retrieval performance.
