چکیده

DEFINITION An evaluation metric is used to evaluate the effectiveness of information retrieval systems and to justify theoretical and/or pragmatical developments of these systems. It consists of a set of measures that follow a common underlying evaluation methodology. There are many metrics that can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of semi-structured text retrieval systems. These metrics are based on different evaluation assumptions, incorporate different hypotheses of the expected user behaviour, and implement their own evaluation methodologies to handle the level of overlap among the units of retrieval.

Evaluation Metrics

An evaluation metric is used to evaluate the effectiveness of information retrieval systems and to justify theoretical and/or pragmatical developments of these systems. It consists of a set of measures that follow a common underlying evaluation methodology. There are many metrics that can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of semi-structured text (XML) retrieval systems. These metrics are ba...

Presenting Semi-Structured Text Retrieval Results

DEFINITION Presenting semi-structured text retrieval results refers to the fact that, in semi-structured text retrieval, results are not independent and a judgment on their relevance needs to take their presentation into account. For example, HTML/XML/SGML documents contain a range of nested sub-trees that are fully contained in their ancestor elements. As a result, semi-structured text retriev...

Evaluation Methods for Rankings of Facetvalues for Faceted Search

We introduce two metrics aimed at evaluating systems that select facetvalues for a faceted search interface. Facetvalues are the values of meta-data fields in semi-structured data and are commonly used to refine queries. It is often the case that there are more facetvalues than can be displayed to a user and thus a selection has to be made. Our metrics evaluate these selections based on binary ...

A Comparative Evaluation of Full-text, Concept-Based, and Context-Sensitive Search

Objectives: Study comparatively (1) concept-based search, using documents pre-indexed by a conceptual hierarchy; (2) context-sensitive search, using structured, labeled documents; and (3) traditional full-text search. Hypotheses were: (1) more contexts lead to better retrieval accuracy, and (2) adding concept-based search to the other searches would improve upon their baseline performances. Des...
