"""
This is the constructor of MRR, an object of type Metric, with the
name MRR. The constructor also allows setting custom values in the
following parameters.
Parameters
----------
name: string
MRR
cutoff: int
The top k results to be considered at per query level (e.g. 10)
threshold: float
This parameter considers relevant results all instances with labels
different from 0, thus with a minimum label value of 1. It can be
set to other values as well (e.g. 3), in the range of possible labels.

"""
The method computes MRR by taking as input the dataset and the predicted
document scores. It returns the averaged MRR score over the entire
dataset and the detailed MRR scores per query.
The mean reciprocal rank is the average of the reciprocal ranks of
results for a sample of queries.
Parameters
----------
dataset : Dataset
Represents the Dataset object on which to apply MRR.
y_pred : numpy 1d array of float
Represents the predicted document scores for each instance
in the dataset.
Returns
-------
avg_score: float
Represents the average MRR over all MRR scores per query.
detailed_scores: numpy 1d array of floats
Represents the detailed MRR scores for each query. It has
the length of n_queries.

"""
This method helps compute the MRR score per query. It is called by the
eval function which averages and aggregates the scores for each query.
We compute the reciprocal rank. The reciprocal rank of a query response
is the multiplicative inverse of the rank of the first correct answer.
Parameters
----------
y: numpy array
Represents the labels of instances corresponding to one query in the
dataset (ground truth).
y_pred: numpy array.
Represents the predicted document scores obtained during the model
scoring phase for that query.
Returns
-------
mrr: float
Represents the MRR score for one query.
