Anserini: ECIR 2019 Cross-Collection Relevance Feedback

This page documents code for replicating results from the following paper:

Requirements: The main requirements are:

python >= 3.6
numpy  >= 1.15.4
scipy  >= 1.1.0
scikit-learn >= 0.20.1
lightgbm >= 2.2.1

We suggest using Conda to manage your Python environment. For reference, this was the Conda environment for our experiments (after setting up the environment with conda install -c conda-forge lightgbm):

$ conda list

Preparation

Run the following commands to index the Robust04, Robust05, and Core17 collections:

nohup sh target/appassembler/bin/IndexCollection -collection TrecCollection \
 -generator JsoupGenerator -threads 16 -input /path/to/robust04 \
 -index lucene-index.robust04.pos+docvectors+rawdocs \
 -storePositions -storeDocvectors -storeRawDocs >& log.robust04.pos+docvectors+rawdocs &

Train classifiers and apply inference for relevance transfer: Configuration files for different combinations of source and target collections are stored in src/main/python/ecir2019_ccrf/configs/. For each configuration, run the following commands:

python src/main/python/ecir2019_ccrf/prepare_training_data.py --config $CONFIG_NAME
python src/main/python/ecir2019_ccrf/prepare_test_data.py --config $CONFIG_NAME
python src/main/python/ecir2019_ccrf/rerank.py --config $CONFIG_NAME
python src/main/python/ecir2019_ccrf/generate_runs.py --config $CONFIG_NAME

After successfully generating all experimental results, you should have the following folders in your current directory:

ccrf.0405_core17/
ccrf.0405_core17.ax/
ccrf.0405_core17.rm3/
ccrf.0417_robust05/

Main Relevance Transfer Experiment

These are commands to generate results in Table 2 of the paper: training on Robust04 and Robust05, testing on Core17.

The first block of the table contains results of WCRobust0405 and results copied from Table 1.

The second block of the table contains results from optimal alpha settings. To determine the optimal settings, use the following commands:

eval/trec_eval.9.0.4/trec_eval src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/qrels.core17.txt \
 ccrf.0405_core17.rm3/core17.rm3_${clf}_${weight}.txt -m map -m P.10 -M 1000

eval/trec_eval.9.0.4/trec_eval src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/qrels.core17.txt \
 ccrf.0405_core17.ax/core17.ax_${clf}_${weight}.txt -m map -m P.10 -M 1000

The options for clf are lr, svm, lgb, and e3 (ensemble of the three classifiers), and weight is [0.0 ... 1.0] in tenth increments.

The third block of the table contains results with alpha = 0.6:

eval/trec_eval.9.0.4/trec_eval src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/qrels.core17.txt \
 ccrf.0405_core17.rm3/core17.rm3_${clf}_0.6.txt -m map -m P.10 -M 1000

eval/trec_eval.9.0.4/trec_eval src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/qrels.core17.txt \
 ccrf.0405_core17.ax/core17.ax_${clf}_0.6.txt -m map -m P.10 -M 1000

The options for clf are lr, svm, lgb, and e3 (same as above).

These are commands to generate results in Table 3 of the paper.
