istella

• Description:

The Istella datasets are three large-scale Learning-to-Rank datasets released by Istella. Each dataset consists of query-document pairs represented as feature vectors and corresponding relevance judgment labels.

The dataset contains three versions:

• main ("Istella LETOR"): Containing 10,454,629 query-document pairs.
• s ("Istella-S LETOR"): Containing 3,408,630 query-document pairs.
• x ("Istella-X LETOR"): Containing 26,791,447 query-document pairs.

You can specify whether to use the main, s or x version of the dataset as follows:

ds = tfds.load("istella/main")
ds = tfds.load("istella/s")
ds = tfds.load("istella/x")

If only istella is specified, the istella/main option is selected by default:

# This is the same as `tfds.load("istella/main")`
ds = tfds.load("istella")
