Information Retrieval 2019-08-02 v1 Machine Learning

Abstract

This paper describes problems with the current way we compare the diversity of different recommendation lists in offline experiments. We illustrate the problems with a case study. We propose the Sudden Death score as a new and better way of making these comparisons.
