Rankers

Rankers#

The ranker is the component that determines the order of the results returned by the retriever. FlexRAG provides several rankers that can be used to sort the results based on various criteria.

class flexrag.ranker.RankerBaseConfig(reserve_num=-1, ranking_field=None)[源代码]#

参数:

reserve_num (int) -- the number of candidates to reserve. If it is less than 0, all candidates will be reserved. Default is -1.
ranking_field (Optional[str]) -- the field name of the ranking field in the retrieved context. If it is None, the ranker will only accept a list of strings as candidates.
