论文摘要
在搜索结果中排名的方式会影响搜索引擎的用户是否暴露于更均匀的观点，或者会影响更多样化的观点。但是，这种观点多样性并不是很容易评估的。在本文中，我们使用现有和新颖的排名公平指标来评估搜索结果排名中的观点多样性。我们进行了对照模拟研究，该研究表明如何将排名公平指标用于观点多样性，如何解释其结果以及根据情况最合适的指标。本文阐明了重要的基础工作，以供将来的研究衡量和评估实际搜索结果排名中的观点多样性。
The way pages are ranked in search results influences whether the users of search engines are exposed to more homogeneous, or rather to more diverse viewpoints. However, this viewpoint diversity is not trivial to assess. In this paper we use existing and novel ranking fairness metrics to evaluate viewpoint diversity in search result rankings. We conduct a controlled simulation study that shows how ranking fairness metrics can be used for viewpoint diversity, how their outcome should be interpreted, and which metric is most suitable depending on the situation. This paper lays out important ground work for future research to measure and assess viewpoint diversity in real search result rankings.
