lazy val
meanAveragePrecision: Double
Returns the mean average precision (MAP) of all the queries.
Returns the mean average precision (MAP) of all the queries. If a query has an empty ground truth set, the average precision will be zero and a log warning is generated.

def
meanAveragePrecisionAt(k: Int): Double
Returns the mean average precision (MAP) at ranking position k of all the queries.
Returns the mean average precision (MAP) at ranking position k of all the queries. If a query has an empty ground truth set, the average precision will be zero and a log warning is generated.
- k
the position to compute the truncated precision, must be positive
- returns
the mean average precision at first k ranking positions

def
ndcgAt(k: Int): Double
Compute the average NDCG value of all the queries, truncated at ranking position k.
Compute the average NDCG value of all the queries, truncated at ranking position k. The discounted cumulative gain at position k is computed as: sumi=1k (2{relevance of ith item} - 1) / log(i + 1), and the NDCG is obtained by dividing the DCG value on the ground truth set. In the current implementation, the relevance value is binary.
If a query has an empty ground truth set, zero will be used as ndcg together with a log warning.

def
precisionAt(k: Int): Double
Compute the average precision of all the queries, truncated at ranking position k.
Compute the average precision of all the queries, truncated at ranking position k.
If for a query, the ranking algorithm returns n (n is less than k) results, the precision value will be computed as #(relevant items retrieved) / k. This formula also applies when the size of the ground truth set is less than k.
If a query has an empty ground truth set, zero will be used as precision together with a log warning.

def
recallAt(k: Int): Double
Compute the average recall of all the queries, truncated at ranking position k.
Compute the average recall of all the queries, truncated at ranking position k.
If for a query, the ranking algorithm returns n results, the recall value will be computed as #(relevant items retrieved) / #(ground truth set). This formula also applies when the size of the ground truth set is less than k.
If a query has an empty ground truth set, zero will be used as recall together with a log warning.
