Reciprocal rank fusion outperforms condorcet and individual rank learning methods
2009
Proceedings of the 32nd international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval - SIGIR '09
Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF), a simple method for combining the document rankings from multiple IR systems, consistently yields better results than any individual system, and better results than the standard ...

We explore the use of query-sensitive model selection and rank fusion methods based on the result lists produced from multiple rank learners. ...
Base on the TREC microblog datasets, we found that our selection-based ensemble approach can significantly outperform using the single best ranker, and it also has clear advantage over the rank fusion ...
Borda-all, Condorcet-all, and RRF-all: Combine all the eight available candidate rankers using CombMNZ, weighted Borda-fuse, and weighed Condorcet-fuse, and Reciprocal Rank Fusion, respectively; (5) CMNZ-sel ...

Learning to rank academic experts in the DBLP dataset
2013
Expert systems
More specifically, this article explores the use of supervised learning to rank methods, as well as rank aggregation approaches, for combing all of the estimators of expertise. ...
Several supervised learning algorithms, which are representative of the pointwise, pairwise and listwise approaches, were tested, and various state-of-the-art data fusion techniques were also explored ...
On the other hand, the Condorcet Fusion algorithm outperformed all of the other methods in almost all of the evaluation metrics tested. ...

Learning to rank by aggregating expert preferences
2012
Proceedings of the 21st ACM international conference on Information and knowledge management - CIKM '12
When applied to crowdsourcing and meta-search benchmarks, our new algorithm improves on state-of-the-art preference aggregation methods. ...
Specifically, we describe how such problems can be converted into a standard learning-to-rank one on which existing learning solutions can be invoked. ...
We also compare with the established meta-search standards Condorcet and Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF) as well as the Bradley-Terry and Plackett-Luce models and the SVD-based method SVP. ...

Search result diversification via data fusion
2014
Proceedings of the 37th international ACM SIGIR conference on Research & development in information retrieval - SIGIR '14
In this short paper, we propose a few data fusion methods to try to improve performance when both relevance and diversity are concerned. ...
Experiments are carried out with 3 groups of top-ranked results submitted to the TREC web diversity task. ...
CombSum, CombMNZ, and the Condorcet method belong to the first category, while the linear combination method is a representative of the second category. ...

Top-kdominant web services under multi-criteria matching
2009
Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Extending Database Technology Advances in Database Technology - EDBT '09
Since there is no consensus on how to weight these scores, existing methods are typically pessimistic, adopting a worst-case scenario. ...
Second, the reduction of individual scores to an overall similarity leads to significant information loss. ...
The Condorcet-fuse method [31] is another rank-based fusion approach. ...

2021
arXiv
pre-print
In machine learning, the notion of multi-armed bandits refers to a class of online learning problems, in which an agent is supposed to simultaneously explore and exploit a given set of choice alternatives ...
Our taxonomy is mainly based on the assumptions made by these methods about the data-generating process and, related to this, the properties of the preference-based feedback. ...
