hello, I run the train.py. But a mistake has occurred at map_, mrr = [float(s[-6:]) for s in stdout.strip().split('\n')]. ValueError:could not convert string to float.

Hi, could you please provide the configuration you use? For WikiQA dataset, you should prepare the evaluation scripts as described in this section

I found the reason, Thanks!

@wangbq18 Hello, I just encountered the same issue, could you please share what was the problem in your case?

Tiriar commented

Found the solution. The problem is that the evaluation scripts already include compiled files, and running make will just say that everything is up-to-date, so it doesn't compile, and the already included trec_eval binary won't work. Had to force the make to rebuild with make -B.

It's correct. I've updated ReadMe to suggest the make -B command. Thanks!
