Contrasting Neural Click Models and Pointwise IPS Rankers

2023
Inverse-propensity scoring and neural click models are two popular methods for learning rankers from user clicks that are affected by position bias. Despite their prevalence, the two methodologies are rarely directly compared on equal footing. In this work, we focus on the pointwise learning setting to compare the theoretical differences of both ...

Optimizing Base Rankers Using Clicks

2014
We study the problem of optimizing an individual base ranker using clicks. Surprisingly, while there has been considerable attention for using clicks to optimize linear combinations of base rankers, the problem of optimizing an individual base ranker using clicks has been ignored.

Learning a Fast Bipartite Ranker for Text Documents Using Lexicographical Rankers and ROC Curves

2017 14th IAPR International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition (ICDAR), 2017
The design of powerful learning methods for addressing huge amounts of unstructured data, such as text documents, is a fundamental problem within the document analysis and recognition community. In this work, we propose FlexRank, a specially designed bipartite ranking algorithm for text documents using lexicographical ordering. FlexRank is based on the

Active query selection for learning rankers

Proceedings of the 35th international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, 2012
Methods that reduce the amount of labeled data needed for training have focused more on selecting which documents to label than on which queries should be labeled. One exception to this (Long et al. 2010) uses expected loss optimization (ELO) to estimate which queries should be selected but is limited to rankers that predict absolute graded relevance ...

LEARning Next gEneration Rankers (LEARNER 2017)

Proceedings of the ACM SIGIR International Conference on Theory of Information Retrieval, 2017
The aim of LEARNER@ICTIR2017 is to investigate new solutions for LtR. In details, we identify some research areas related to LtR which are of actual interest and which have not been fully explored yet. We solicit the submission of position papers on novel LtR algorithms, on evaluation of LtR algorithms, on dataset creation and curation, and on domain ...

Exo-Habitability-Ranker

This report documents the design and implementation of the Exo-Habitability-Ranker, a web application that ranks known exoplanets by a computed habitability score using the TOPSIS method. We detail data ingestion from the NASA Exoplanet Archive, preprocessing steps including feature selection and normalization, implementation of the TOPSIS algorithm ...

Multiple Ranker Method in Document Retrieval

2008
In this paper, we propose a multiple-ranker approach to make learning to rank methods more effective for document retrieval application. In traditional learning to rank methods, a ranker is learned from a set of queries together with their corresponding document rankings labeled by experts, and it is then used to predict the document rankings for new ...
