# PyTerrier

PyTerrier - v1.0

<p align="center">
  🔍 <b>Retrieve.</b> 🧠 <b>Rerank.</b> 💬 <b>Answer.</b> ⚙️ <b>Experiment.</b>
</p>


# Overview

Build (sparse|learned sparse|dense) indexing and retrieval pipelines for search and RAG use-cases, and conduct experiments on standard datasets.

For example, build a re-ranking pipeline combining a Terrier BM25 retriever and the MonoT5 neural reranker (each of these are PyTerrier [Transformer](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/transformer.html) classes):

```python
import pyterrier as pt
import pyterrier_t5
bm25 = pt.terrier.TerrierIndex.from_hf("pyterrier/vaswani.terrier").bm25()
monot5 = bm25 >> pt.get.get_text(pt.get_dataset('irds:vaswani')) >> pyterrier_t5.MonoT5ReRanker()
monot5.search("What are chemical reactions?")
```

In notebook environments, PyTerrier transformers and pipelines can be visualised.

You can easily build pipeline for [query expansion](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/rewrite.html), [learning-to-rank](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ltr.html), [dense retrieval](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/pyterrier-dr/overview.html) and even [RAG](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/pyterrier-rag/index.html).

Once you have working pipelines, you can formulate an experiment to compare their effectiveness using the [pt.Experiment](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/experiments.html) function:
```python
from pyterrier.measures import *
pt.Experiment(
  [bm25, monot5]
  pt.get_dataset('vaswani').get_topics(),
  pt.get_dataset('vaswani').get_qrels(),
  [nDCG@10, AP@100]
)
```

You can easily perform retrieval experiments using many [standard datasets](https://pyterrier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/datasets.html), including all from the [ir_datasets package](https://github.com/allenai/ir_datasets). E.g., use `pt.datasets.get_dataset("irds:medline/2004/trec-genomics-2004")`
to get the TREC Genomics 2004 dataset. A full catalogue of ir_datasets is available [here](https://ir-datasets.com/all.html).


# Installation

The easiest way to get started with PyTerrier is to use one of our Colab notebooks - look for the ![Open In Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg) badges below.

### Linux or Google Colab or Windows or macOS
1. `pip install 'pyterrier[all]'`
2. You may need to set JAVA_HOME environment variable if Pyjnius cannot find your Java installation. On Colab, we install Java automatically.

# PyTerrier Extensions

PyTerrier has additional plugins for everything from dense retrieval to RAG:

 - Pyterrier_DR: [[Github](https://github.com/terrierteam/pyterrier_colbert)] - single-representation dense retrieval
 - Pyterrier_RAG: [[Github](https://github.com/terrierteam/pyterrier_rag)] - retrieval augmented generation and LLM access
 - PyTerrier_ColBERT: [[Github](https://github.com/terrierteam/pyterrier_colbert)] - mulitple-representation dense retrieval and/or neural reranking
 - PyTerrier_PISA: [[Github](https://github.com/terrierteam/pyterrier_pisa)] - fast in-memory indexing and retrieval using [PISA](https://github.com/pisa-engine/pisa)
 - PyTerrier_T5: [[Github](https://github.com/terrierteam/pyterrier_t5)] - neural reranking: monoT5, duoT5
 - PyTerrier_GenRank [[Github](https://github.com/emory-irlab/pyterrier_genrank)] - generative listwise reranking: RankVicuna, RankZephyr
 - PyTerrier_doc2query: [[Github](https://github.com/terrierteam/pyterrier_doc2query)] - neural augmented indexing
 - PyTerrier_SPLADE: [[Github](https://github.com/cmacdonald/pyt_splade)] - neural augmented indexing

You can see examples of how to use these, including notebooks that run on Google Colab, in the contents of our [Search Solutions 2022 tutorial](https://github.com/terrier-org/searchsolutions2022-tutorial).
