Usefulness as the Criterion for Evaluation of Interactive Information Retrieval
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of an information retrieval (IR) system is to help users accomplish a task. IR system evaluation should consider both task success and the value of support given over the entire information seeking episode. Relevance-based measurements fail to address these requirements. In this paper, usefulness is proposed as a basis for IR evaluation.
