An Improved Multileaving Algorithm for Online Ranker Evaluation

Abstract: Online ranker evaluation is a key challenge in information retrieval. An important task in the online evaluation of rankers is using implicit user feedback for inferring preferences between rankers. Interleaving methods have been found to be efficient and sensitive, i.e. they can quickly detect even small differences in quality. It has recently been shown that multileaving methods exhibit similar sensitivity but can be more efficient than interleaving methods. This paper presents empirical results demonstratin… Show more

“…To address this gap, we propose a novel multileaved comparison method, Pairwise Preference Multileaving (PPM). PPM di ers from existing multileaved comparison methods as its comparisons are based on inferred pairwise document preferences, whereas existing multileaved comparison methods either use some form of document assignment [27,28] or click credit functions [2,27]. We prove that PPM meets both the considerateness and the delity requirements, thus PPM guarantees correct winners in unambiguous cases while maintaining the user experience at all times.…”

“…Sample-Scored-Only Multileaving (SOSM) was introduced by Brost et al [2] in an a empt to create a more scalable multileaved comparison method. It is the only existing multileaved comparison method that does not have an interleaved comparison counterpart.…”
