For each method, we give the comparison results against the user memory-based and LambdaMART methods in the rows denoted by δU B and δLM respectively. More precisely we report the numbers of wins/losses, thep-values of the McNemar’s test on these values, and denote by (+) a statistically significant improvement, by (=) no performance difference and by (-) a significant loss. In bold, the best method for a givenk.
