Explain like I am BM25: Interpreting a Dense Model's Ranked-List with a Sparse Approximation

Michael Llordes, Debasis Ganguly, Sumit Bhatia +1

Neural retrieval models (NRMs) have been shown to outperform their statistical counterparts owing to their ability to capture semantic meaning via dense document representations. T…

Query-specific Variable Depth Pooling via Query Performance Prediction towards Reducing Relevance Assessment Effort

Debasis Ganguly, Emine Yilmaz

Due to the massive size of test collections, a standard practice in IR evaluation is to construct a 'pool' of candidate relevant documents comprised of the top-k documents retrieve…

On the Feasibility and Robustness of Pointwise Evaluation of Query Performance Prediction

Suchana Datta, Debasis Ganguly, Derek Greene +1

Despite the retrieval effectiveness of queries being mutually independent of one another, the evaluation of query performance prediction (QPP) systems has been carried out by measu…

An Analysis of Variations in the Effectiveness of Query Performance Prediction

Debasis Ganguly, Suchana Datta, Mandar Mitra +1

A query performance predictor estimates the retrieval effectiveness of an IR system for a given query. An important characteristic of QPP evaluation is that, since the ground truth…

Kernel Density Estimation based Factored Relevance Model for Multi-Contextual Point-of-Interest Recommendation

Anirban Chakraborty, Debasis Ganguly, Annalina Caputo +1

An automated contextual suggestion algorithm is likely to recommend contextually appropriate and personalized 'points-of-interest' (POIs) to a user, if it can extract information f…
