Abstract
Methods and systems for multi-tiered information retrieval training are disclosed. A method includes identifying results in a ranked ordering of results that can be swapped without changing a score determined using a first ranking quality measure, determining a first vector and at least one other vector for each identified swappable result in the ranked ordering of results based on the first ranking quality measure and at least one other ranking quality measure respectively, and adding the first vector and the at least one other vector for each identified swappable result in the ranked ordering of results to obtain a function of the first vector and the at least one other vector. Access is provided to the function of the first vector and the at least one other vector for use in the multi-tiered information retrieval training.
