信息检索系统评价的起源kent等人第一次提出了关于precision和 .pptVIP

* * sensitivity:灵敏性 specificity:特异性 * nuanced:有细微差别的 R-precision1-2 It requires having a set of known relevant documents of size Rel, from which we calculate the precision of the top Rel documents returned Like Precision at k, R-precision describes only one point on the precision-recall curve And the R-precision and R-recall is equal ( r/Rel ) and is identical to the break-even point of the PR curve R-precision2-2 But even a perfect system could only achieve a precision at 20 of 0.4 if there were only 8 relevant documents Averaging this measure across queries thus makes more sense ROC curve1-3
