Method Detail

measureUser

@Nonnull
public MetricResult measureUser(TestUser user,
                                          int targetLength,
                                          LongList recommendations,
                                          MeanAccumulator context)

Description copied from class: ListOnlyTopNMetric

Measurement method that only uses the recommend list.

Specified by:

measureUser in class ListOnlyTopNMetric<MeanAccumulator>

Parameters:

user - The user.

targetLength - The target list length.

recommendations - The list of recommendations.

context - The context.

Returns:

The results of measuring this user.

createContext

@Nullable
public MeanAccumulator createContext(AlgorithmInstance algorithm,
                                                DataSet dataSet,
                                                Recommender recommender)

Description copied from class: Metric

Create the context for an experimental condition (algorithm/data set pair). The default implementation returns null.

Overrides:

createContext in class Metric<MeanAccumulator>

Parameters:

algorithm - The algorithm.

dataSet - The data set.

recommender - The LensKit recommender, if applicable. This can be null for an external algorithm that does not provide a LensKit recommender.

Returns:

The accumulator. This will be passed to the individual measurement methods. If the metric does need to accumulate any results, this method can return null.

getAggregateMeasurements

@Nonnull
public MetricResult getAggregateMeasurements(MeanAccumulator context)

Description copied from class: Metric

Get the aggregate results from an accumulator. The default implementation returns MetricResult.empty().

Overrides:

getAggregateMeasurements in class Metric<MeanAccumulator>

Parameters:

context - The context for an experimental condition.

Returns:

The aggregate results from the accumulator.
