A Machine Learning based Approach to Evaluating Retrieval Systems

Résumé

Test collections are essential to evaluate Information Retrieval (IR) systems. The relevance assessment set has been recognized as the key bottleneck in test collection building, especially on very large sized document collections. This paper addresses the problem of efficiently selecting documents to be included in the assessment set. We will show how machine learning techniques can fit this task. This leads to smaller pools than traditional round robin pooling, thus reduces significantly the manual assessment workload. Experimental results on TREC collections consistently demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach according to different evaluation criteria.
