||
### TopPSampler
|
||
|
||
Implements top-p (nucleus) sampling for document filtering based on cumulative probability scores.
|
||
|
||
This component provides functionality to filter a list of documents by selecting those whose scores fall
|
||
within the top 'p' percent of the cumulative distribution. It is useful for focusing on high-probability
|
||
documents while filtering out less relevant ones based on their assigned scores.
|
||
|
||
Usage example:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
from haystack import Document
|
||
from haystack.components.samplers import TopPSampler
|
||
|
||
sampler = TopPSampler(top_p=0.95, score_field="similarity_score")
|
||
docs = [
|
||
Document(content="Berlin", meta={"similarity_score": -10.6}),
|
||
Document(content="Belgrade", meta={"similarity_score": -8.9}),
|
||
Document(content="Sarajevo", meta={"similarity_score": -4.6}),
|
||
]
|
||
output = sampler.run(documents=docs)
|
||
docs = output["documents"]
|
||
assert len(docs) == 1
|
||
assert docs[0].content == "Sarajevo"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### __init__
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
__init__(
|
||
top_p: float = 1.0,
|
||
score_field: str | None = None,
|
||
min_top_k: int | None = None,
|
||
) -> None
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Creates an instance of TopPSampler.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters:**
|
||
|
||
- **top_p** (<code>float</code>) – Float between 0 and 1 representing the cumulative probability threshold for document selection.
|
||
A value of 1.0 indicates no filtering (all documents are retained).
|
||
- **score_field** (<code>str | None</code>) – Name of the field in each document's metadata that contains the score. If None, the default
|
||
document score field is used.
|
||
- **min_top_k** (<code>int | None</code>) – If specified, the minimum number of documents to return. If the top_p selects
|
||
fewer documents, additional ones with the next highest scores are added to the selection.
|
||
|
||
#### run
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
run(documents: list[Document], top_p: float | None = None) -> dict[str, Any]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Filters documents using top-p sampling based on their scores.
|
||
|
||
If the specified top_p results in no documents being selected (especially in cases of a low top_p value), the
|
||
method returns the document with the highest score.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters:**
|
||
|
||
- **documents** (<code>list\[Document\]</code>) – List of Document objects to be filtered.
|
||
- **top_p** (<code>float | None</code>) – If specified, a float to override the cumulative probability threshold set during initialization.
|
||
|
||
**Returns:**
|
||
|
||
- <code>dict\[str, Any\]</code> – A dictionary with the following key:
|
||
- `documents`: List of Document objects that have been selected based on the top-p sampling.
|
||
|
||
**Raises:**
|
||
|
||
- <code>ValueError</code> – If the top_p value is not within the range [0, 1].
