チュートリアル: 時間ベースのランキングを実装する

多くの検索アプリケーションでは、コンテンツの鮮度は関連性と同じくらい重要です。ニュース記事、商品リスト、ソーシャルメディアの投稿、研究論文は、いずれも意味的な関連性と新しさのバランスを取るランキングシステムの恩恵を受けます。このチュートリアルでは、減衰ランカーを使用して Zilliz Cloud で時間ベースのランキングを実装する方法を説明します。

減衰ランカーを理解する​

減衰ランカーを使用すると、基準点に対する数値（タイムスタンプなど）に基づいてドキュメントをブーストまたはペナルティ処理できます。時間ベースのランキングでは、意味的な関連性が同程度であっても、新しいドキュメントが古いドキュメントよりも高いスコアを受け取ることができます。

Zilliz Cloud は 3 種類の減衰ランカーをサポートしています。

  • Gaussian（gauss）: 滑らかで緩やかな減衰を提供するベル型の曲線

  • Exponential（exp）: 最近のコンテンツを強く重視するために、より急峻な初期の低下を生み出します

  • Linear（linear）: 予測しやすく理解しやすい直線的な減衰

各ランカーはそれぞれ異なる特性を持ち、さまざまなユースケースに適しています。詳細については、減衰ランカーの概要 を参照してください。

時間を考慮した検索システムを構築する​

関連性と時間の両方に基づいてコンテンツを効果的にランク付けする方法を示す、ニュース記事の検索システムを作成します。まずは実装から始めます。

python
import datetime
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from pymilvus import (
    MilvusClient,
    DataType,
    Function,
    FunctionType,
    AnnSearchRequest,
)

# Create connection to Milvus
milvus_client = MilvusClient("YOUR_CLUSTER_ENDPOINT")

# Define collection name
collection_name = "news_articles_tutorial"

# Clean up any existing collection with the same name
milvus_client.drop_collection(collection_name)

ステップ 1: スキーマを設計する​

時間ベースの検索では、コンテンツと一緒に公開タイムスタンプを保存する必要があります。

python
# Create schema with fields for content and temporal information
schema = milvus_client.create_schema(enable_dynamic_field=False, auto_id=True)
schema.add_field("id", DataType.INT64, is_primary=True)
schema.add_field("headline", DataType.VARCHAR, max_length=200, enable_analyzer=True)
schema.add_field("content", DataType.VARCHAR, max_length=2000, enable_analyzer=True)
schema.add_field("dense", DataType.FLOAT_VECTOR, dim=1024)  # For dense embeddings
schema.add_field("sparse_vector", DataType.SPARSE_FLOAT_VECTOR)  # For sparse (BM25) search
schema.add_field("publish_date", DataType.INT64)  # Timestamp for decay ranking

ステップ 2: 埋め込み関数を設定する​

密（セマンティック）と疎（キーワード）の両方の埋め込み関数を構成します。

python
# Create embedding function for semantic search
text_embedding_function = Function(
    name="siliconflow_embedding",
    function_type=FunctionType.TEXTEMBEDDING,
    input_field_names=["content"],
    output_field_names=["dense"],
    params={
        "provider": "siliconflow",
        "model_name": "BAAI/bge-large-en-v1.5",
        "credential": "your-api-key"
    }
)
schema.add_function(text_embedding_function)

# Create BM25 function for keyword search
bm25_function = Function(
    name="bm25",
    input_field_names=["content"],
    output_field_names=["sparse_vector"],
    function_type=FunctionType.BM25,
)
schema.add_function(bm25_function)

ステップ 3: インデックスパラメータを構成する​

高速なベクトル検索に適したインデックスパラメータを設定します。

python
# Set up indexes for fast search
index_params = milvus_client.prepare_index_params()

# Dense vector index
index_params.add_index(field_name="dense", index_type="AUTOINDEX", metric_type="L2")

# Sparse vector index
index_params.add_index(
    field_name="sparse_vector",
    index_name="sparse_inverted_index",
    index_type="AUTOINDEX",
    metric_type="BM25",
)

# Create the collection with our schema and indexes
milvus_client.create_collection(
    collection_name,
    schema=schema,
    index_params=index_params,
    consistency_level="Strong"
)

ステップ 4: サンプルデータを準備する​

このチュートリアルでは、公開日が異なるニュース記事のセットを作成します。減衰ランキングの効果を明確に示すために、ほぼ同一のコンテンツでありながら日付が異なる記事のペアを含めている点に注目してください。

python
# Get current time
current_time = int(datetime.datetime.now().timestamp())
current_date = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(current_time)
print(f"Current time: {current_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')}")

# Sample news articles spanning different dates
articles = [
    {
        "headline": "AI Breakthrough Enables Medical Diagnosis Advancement",
        "content": "Researchers announced a major breakthrough in AI-based medical diagnostics, enabling faster and more accurate detection of rare diseases.",
        "publish_date": int((current_date - datetime.timedelta(days=120)).timestamp())  # ~4 months ago
    },
    {
        "headline": "Tech Giants Compete in New AI Race",
        "content": "Major technology companies are investing billions in a new race to develop the most advanced artificial intelligence systems.",
        "publish_date": int((current_date - datetime.timedelta(days=60)).timestamp())  # ~2 months ago
    },
    {
        "headline": "AI Ethics Guidelines Released by International Body",
        "content": "A consortium of international organizations has released new guidelines addressing ethical concerns in artificial intelligence development and deployment.",
        "publish_date": int((current_date - datetime.timedelta(days=30)).timestamp())  # 1 month ago
    },
    {
        "headline": "Latest Deep Learning Models Show Remarkable Progress",
        "content": "The newest generation of deep learning models demonstrates unprecedented capabilities in language understanding and generation.",
        "publish_date": int((current_date - datetime.timedelta(days=15)).timestamp())  # 15 days ago
    },
    # Articles with identical content but different dates
    {
        "headline": "AI Research Advancements Published in January",
        "content": "Breakthrough research in artificial intelligence shows remarkable advancements in multiple domains.",
        "publish_date": int((current_date - datetime.timedelta(days=90)).timestamp())  # ~3 months ago
    },
    {
        "headline": "New AI Research Results Released This Week",
        "content": "Breakthrough research in artificial intelligence shows remarkable advancements in multiple domains.",
        "publish_date": int((current_date - datetime.timedelta(days=5)).timestamp())  # Very recent - 5 days ago
    },
    {
        "headline": "AI Development Updates Released Yesterday",
        "content": "Recent developments in artificial intelligence research are showing promising results across various applications.",
        "publish_date": int((current_date - datetime.timedelta(days=1)).timestamp())  # Just yesterday
    },
]

# Insert articles into the collection
milvus_client.insert(collection_name, articles)
print(f"Inserted {len(articles)} articles into the collection")

ステップ 5: さまざまな減衰ランカーを構成する​

次に、それぞれ異なるパラメータを持つ 3 つの減衰ランカーを作成し、その違いを明確にします。

python
# Use current time as reference point
print(f"Using current time as reference point")

# Create a Gaussian decay ranker
gaussian_ranker = Function(
    name="time_decay_gaussian",
    input_field_names=["publish_date"],
    function_type=FunctionType.RERANK,
    params={
        "reranker": "decay",
        "function": "gauss",           # Gaussian/bell curve decay
        "origin": current_time,        # Current time as reference point
        "offset": 7 * 24 * 60 * 60,    # One week (full relevance)
        "decay": 0.5,                  # Articles from two weeks ago have half relevance 
        "scale": 14 * 24 * 60 * 60     # Two weeks scale parameter
    }
)

# Create an exponential decay ranker with different parameters
exponential_ranker = Function(
    name="time_decay_exponential",
    input_field_names=["publish_date"],
    function_type=FunctionType.RERANK,
    params={
        "reranker": "decay",
        "function": "exp",             # Exponential decay
        "origin": current_time,        # Current time as reference point
        "offset": 3 * 24 * 60 * 60,    # Shorter offset (3 days vs 7 days)
        "decay": 0.3,                  # Steeper decay (0.3 vs 0.5) 
        "scale": 10 * 24 * 60 * 60     # Different scale (10 days vs 14 days)
    }
)

# Create a linear decay ranker
linear_ranker = Function(
    name="time_decay_linear",
    input_field_names=["publish_date"],
    function_type=FunctionType.RERANK,
    params={
        "reranker": "decay",
        "function": "linear",          # Linear decay
        "origin": current_time,        # Current time as reference point
        "offset": 7 * 24 * 60 * 60,    # One week (full relevance)
        "decay": 0.5,                  # Articles from two weeks ago have half relevance
        "scale": 14 * 24 * 60 * 60     # Two weeks scale parameter
    }
)

上記のコードでは、次のとおりです。

  • reranker: 時間ベースの減衰関数には decay を設定します

  • function: 減衰関数の種類（gauss、exp、linear のいずれか）

  • origin: 基準点（通常は現在時刻）

  • offset: ドキュメントが完全な関連性を維持する期間

  • scale: オフセットを超えて関連性がどの程度急速に低下するかを制御します

  • decay: offset+scale の時点における減衰係数（例: 0.5 は関連性が半分になることを意味します）

異なる動作を得られるようにこれらの関数を調整する方法を示すため、Exponential ランカーを異なるパラメータで構成している点に注目してください。

ステップ 6: 減衰ランカーを可視化する​

検索を実行する前に、このように構成の異なる減衰ランカーがどのように動作するかを視覚的に比較します。

python
# Visualize the decay functions with different parameters
days = np.linspace(0, 90, 100)
# Gaussian: offset=7, scale=14, decay=0.5
gaussian_values = [1.0 if d <= 7 else (0.5 ** ((d - 7) / 14)) for d in days]
# Exponential: offset=3, scale=10, decay=0.3
exponential_values = [1.0 if d <= 3 else (0.3 ** ((d - 3) / 10)) for d in days]
# Linear: offset=7, scale=14, decay=0.5
linear_values = [1.0 if d <= 7 else max(0, 1.0 - ((d - 7) / 14) * 0.5) for d in days]

plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6))
plt.plot(days, gaussian_values, label='Gaussian (offset=7, scale=14, decay=0.5)')
plt.plot(days, exponential_values, label='Exponential (offset=3, scale=10, decay=0.3)')
plt.plot(days, linear_values, label='Linear (offset=7, scale=14, decay=0.5)')
plt.axhline(y=0.5, color='gray', linestyle='--', alpha=0.5, label='Half relevance')
plt.xlabel('Days ago')
plt.ylabel('Relevance factor')
plt.title('Decay Functions Comparison')
plt.legend()
plt.grid(True)
plt.savefig('decay_functions.png')
plt.close()

# Print numerical representation
print("\n=== TIME DECAY EFFECT VISUALIZATION ===")
print("Days ago | Gaussian | Exponential | Linear")
print("-----------------------------------------")
for days in [0, 3, 7, 10, 14, 21, 30, 60, 90]:
    # Calculate decay factors based on the parameters in our rankers
    gaussian_decay = 1.0 if days <= 7 else (0.5 ** ((days - 7) / 14))
    exponential_decay = 1.0 if days <= 3 else (0.3 ** ((days - 3) / 10))
    linear_decay = 1.0 if days <= 7 else max(0, 1.0 - ((days - 7) / 14) * 0.5)

    print(f"{days:2d} days | {gaussian_decay:.4f}   | {exponential_decay:.4f}     | {linear_decay:.4f}")

期待される出力:

plaintext
=== TIME DECAY EFFECT VISUALIZATION ===

 7 days | 1.0000   | 0.6178     | 1.0000
10 days | 0.8620   | 0.4305     | 0.8929

90 days | 0.0164   | 0.0000     | 0.0000

ステップ 7: 結果表示用のヘルパー関数​

python
# Helper function to format search results with dates and scores
def print_search_results(results, title):
    print(f"\n=== {title} ===")
    for i, hit in enumerate(results[0]):
        publish_date = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(hit.get('publish_date'))
        days_from_now = (current_time - hit.get('publish_date')) / (24 * 60 * 60)

        print(f"{i+1}. {hit.get('headline')}")
        print(f"   Published: {publish_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')} ({int(days_from_now)} days ago)")
        print(f"   Score: {hit.score:.4f}")
        print()

次に、検索クエリを実行し、減衰ランキングありとなしの結果を比較します。

python
# Define our search query
query = "artificial intelligence advancements"

# 1. Search without decay ranking (purely based on semantic relevance)
standard_results = milvus_client.search(
    collection_name,
    data=[query],
    anns_field="dense",
    limit=7,  # Get all our articles
    output_fields=["headline", "content", "publish_date"],
    consistency_level="Strong"
)
print_search_results(standard_results, "SEARCH RESULTS WITHOUT DECAY RANKING")

# Store original scores for later comparison
original_scores = {}
for hit in standard_results[0]:
    original_scores[hit.get('headline')] = hit.score

# 2. Search with each decay function
# Gaussian decay
gaussian_results = milvus_client.search(
    collection_name,
    data=[query],
    anns_field="dense",
    limit=7,
    output_fields=["headline", "content", "publish_date"],
    ranker=gaussian_ranker,
    consistency_level="Strong"
)
print_search_results(gaussian_results, "SEARCH RESULTS WITH GAUSSIAN DECAY RANKING")

# Exponential decay
exponential_results = milvus_client.search(
    collection_name,
    data=[query],
    anns_field="dense",
    limit=7,
    output_fields=["headline", "content", "publish_date"],
    ranker=exponential_ranker,
    consistency_level="Strong"
)
print_search_results(exponential_results, "SEARCH RESULTS WITH EXPONENTIAL DECAY RANKING")

# Linear decay
linear_results = milvus_client.search(

    anns_field="dense",
    limit=7,
    output_fields=["headline", "content", "publish_date"],

)
print_search_results(linear_results, "SEARCH RESULTS WITH LINEAR DECAY RANKING")

ステップ 10: 時間減衰を使用したハイブリッド検索​

より複雑なシナリオでは、ハイブリッド検索を使用して密（セマンティック）ベクトルと疎（キーワード）ベクトルを組み合わせることができます。

python
# Set up hybrid search (combining dense and sparse vectors)
dense_search = AnnSearchRequest(
    data=[query],
    anns_field="dense",  # Search dense vectors

# Create variations of the Gaussian decay function with different scale parameters
print("\n=== PARAMETER VARIATION EXPERIMENT: SCALE ===")
for scale_days in [7, 14, 30]:
    scaled_ranker = Function(
        name=f"time_decay_gaussian_{scale_days}",
        input_field_names=["publish_date"],
        function_type=FunctionType.RERANK,
        params={
            "reranker": "decay",
            "function": "gauss",
            "origin": current_time,
            "offset": 7 * 24 * 60 * 60,  # Fixed offset of 7 days
            "decay": 0.5,                # Fixed decay of 0.5
            "scale": scale_days * 24 * 60 * 60  # Variable scale
        }
    )

    # Get results
    scale_results = milvus_client.search(
        collection_name,
        data=[query],
        anns_field="dense",
        limit=7,
        output_fields=["headline", "content", "publish_date"],
        ranker=scaled_ranker,
        consistency_level="Strong"
    )

    print_search_results(scale_results, f"SEARCH WITH GAUSSIAN DECAY (SCALE = {scale_days} DAYS)")
