Agent Search: Dense reciprocal rank for custom ranking


Agent Search: Dense reciprocal rank for custom ranking

You can use the dense reciprocal rank transformation function, drr, to customize search result ranking. It's an improvement on the reciprocal rank function, rr. Using the dense reciprocal rank function leads to higher quality ranking when there are duplicate signal values.

Duplicate signal values are more common when the ranking formula contains the following types of signal:

• The boosting_factor signal • The geo_distance() function signal • Categorical and integer custom signals

This feature is generally available (GA). For more information, see Customize search results ranking.
