arXiv:2610.14730v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Adapting embedding models to new tasks requires training data that reflect task-specific information needs and relevance criteria. However, manual data design is costly and difficult to scale. Here we introduce SYNTRA, a novel retrieval data synthesis method whose self-improvement loop iteratively refines reusable synthesis instructions using feedback on trial outputs. This process requires only an unlabelled corpus and a few relevant query-document pairs. Experiments across 24 retrieval datasets spanning 15 domains demonstrate the effectivenes
