Regulatory Natural Language Processing (RegNLP) is a multidisciplinary domain focused on facilitating access to and comprehension of regulatory regulations and requirements. This paper outlines our strategy for creating a system to address the Regulatory Information Retrieval and Answer Generation (RIRAG) challenge, which was conducted during the RegNLP 2025 Workshop. The objective of this competition is to design a system capable of efficiently extracting pertinent passages from regulatory texts (ObliQA) and subsequently generating accurate, cohesive responses to inquiries related to compliance and obligations. Our proposed method employs a lightweight BM25 pre-filtering in retrieving relevant passages. This technique efficiently shortlisting candidates for subsequent processing with Transformer-based embeddings, thereby optimizing the use of resources.

The proliferation of multilingual misinformation demands robust systems for crosslingual fact-checked claim retrieval. This paper addresses SemEval-2025 Shared Task 7, which challenges participants to retrieve fact-checks for social media posts across 14 languages, even when posts and fact-checks are in different languages. We propose a hybrid retrieval pipeline that combines sparse lexical matching (BM25, BGE-m3) and dense semantic retrieval (pretrained and fine-tuned BGE-m3) with dynamic fusion and curriculum-trained rerankers. Our system achieves 67.2% crosslingual and 86.01% monolingual accuracy on the Shared Task MultiClaim dataset.

The inclination of large language models (LLMs) to produce mistaken assertions, known as hallucinations, can be problematic. These hallucinations could potentially be harmful since sporadic factual inaccuracies within the generated text might be concealed by the overall coherence of the content, making it immensely challenging for users to identify them. The goal of the SHROOM shared-task is to detect grammatically sound outputs that contain incorrect or unsupported semantic information. Although there are a lot of existing hallucination detectors in generated AI content, we found out that pretrained Natural Language Inference (NLI) models yet exhibit success in detecting hallucinations. Moreover their ensemble outperforms more complicated models.
