"""Calculate or keep track of the interpolated average precision.
It provides an interface for calculating interpolated average precision for an
entire list or the top-n ranked items. For the definition of the
(non-)interpolated average precision:
http://trec.nist.gov/pubs/trec15/appendices/CE.MEASURES06.pdf
Example usages:
1) Use it as a static function call to directly calculate average precision for
a short ranked list in the memory.
```
import random
p = np.array([random.random() for _ in xrange(10)])
a = np.array([random.choice([0, 1]) for _ in xrange(10)])
ap = average_precision_calculator.AveragePrecisionCalculator.ap(p, a)
```
2) Use it as an object for long ranked list that cannot be stored in memory or
the case where partial predictions can be observed at a time (Tensorflow
predictions). In this case, we first call the function accumulate many times
to process parts of the ranked list. After processing all the parts, we call
peek_interpolated_ap_at_n.
```
p1 = np.array([random.random() for _ in xrange(5)])
a1 = np.array([random.choice([0, 1]) for _ in xrange(5)])
p2 = np.array([random.random() for _ in xrange(5)])
a2 = np.array([random.choice([0, 1]) for _ in xrange(5)])
# interpolated average precision at 10 using 1000 break points
calculator = average_precision_calculator.AveragePrecisionCalculator(10)
calculator.accumulate(p1, a1)
calculator.accumulate(p2, a2)
ap3 = calculator.peek_ap_at_n()
```
