             Summary: Support NDCG calculation within a UDF
                 Key: DATAFU-60
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DATAFU-60
             Project: DataFu
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Joshua Hartman


Ndcg is a common evaluation metric for the quality of a list of items presented 
to a user. It is an especially common metric used in the search literature.

This feature request is to implement a udf to calculate ndcg. 

NDCG can be calculated using any function to represent the value of a position. 
Several useful functions should be available as part of the datafu library. 
First is the standard 1/logarithmic discounting factor. Another option should 
be the ability to supply a custom positional value for any range of positions 
in the case that a positional "value" is already well understood. However, the 
actual discounting function used should be easily pluggable in the event 
something custom is needed
