ABSTRACT
We consider noisy crowdsourced assessments and their impact on learning-to-rank algorithms. Starting with EM-weighted assessments, we modify LambdaMART in order to use smoothed probabilistic preferences over pairs of documents, directly as input to the ranking algorithm.

Aggregation of Crowdsourced Ordinal Assessments and Integration with Learning to Rank: A Latent Trait Model
CIKM '15: Proceedings of the 24th ACM International on Conference on Information and Knowledge ManagementExisting approaches used for training and evaluating search engines often rely on crowdsourced assessments of document relevance with respect to a user query. To use such assessments for either evaluation or learning, we propose a new framework for the ...
Unbiased LambdaMART: An Unbiased Pairwise Learning-to-Rank Algorithm
WWW '19: The World Wide Web ConferenceRecently a number of algorithms under the theme of 'unbiased learning-to-rank' have been proposed, which can reduce position bias, the major type of bias in click data, and train a high-performance ranker with click data. Most of the existing algorithms,...
Post-ranking query suggestion by diversifying search results
SIGIR '11: Proceedings of the 34th international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in Information RetrievalQuery suggestion refers to the process of suggesting related queries to search engine users. Most existing researches have focused on improving the relevance of suggested queries. In this paper, we introduce the concept of diversifying the content of ...
