The basic idea of MRR is this - https://www.evidentlyai.com/ranking-metrics/mean-reciprocal-rank-mrr I've implemented a weighted version for allowing user to set weightage between vector and fts. The gist is something like this ### Scenario A: Document at rank 1 in one set, absent from another ``` # Assuming equal weights: weight_vector = 0.5, weight_fts = 0.5 vector_rr = 1.0 # rank 1 → 1/1 = 1.0 fts_rr = 0.0 # absent → 0.0 weighted_mrr = 0.5 × 1.0 + 0.5 × 0.0 = 0.5 ``` ### Scenario B: Document at rank 1 in one set, rank 2 in another ``` # Same weights: weight_vector = 0.5, weight_fts = 0.5 vector_rr = 1.0 # rank 1 → 1/1 = 1.0 fts_rr = 0.5 # rank 2 → 1/2 = 0.5 weighted_mrr = 0.5 × 1.0 + 0.5 × 0.5 = 0.5 + 0.25 = 0.75 ``` And so with `return_score="all"` the result looks something like this (this is from the reranker tests). Because this is a weighted rank based reranker, some results might have the same score ``` text vector _distance _rowid _score _relevance_score 0 I am your father [-0.010703234, 0.069315575, 0.030076642, 0.002... 8.149148e-13 8589934598 10.978719 1.000000 1 the ground beneath my feet [-0.09500901, 0.00092102867, 0.0755851, 0.0372... 1.376896e+00 8589934604 NaN 0.250000 2 I find your lack of faith disturbing [0.07525753, -0.0100010475, 0.09990541, 0.0209...

Installation
pip install lancedb
Preview Releases
Stable releases are created about every 2 weeks. For the latest features and bug fixes, you can install the preview release. These releases receive the same level of testing as stable releases, but are not guaranteed to be available for more than 6 months after they are released. Once your application is stable, we recommend switching to stable releases.
pip install --pre --extra-index-url https://pypi.fury.io/lancedb/ lancedb
Usage
Basic Example
import lancedb
db = lancedb.connect('<PATH_TO_LANCEDB_DATASET>')
table = db.open_table('my_table')
results = table.search([0.1, 0.3]).limit(20).to_list()
print(results)
