Retrieval Status Values in Information Retrieval Evaluation

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 3772))

Abstract

Retrieval systems rank documents according to their retrieval status values (RSV) if these are monotonously increasing with the probability of relevance of documents. In this work, we investigate the links between RSVs and IR system evaluation.
