Do batch and user evaluations give the same results?
2000
Proceedings of the 23rd annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval - SIGIR '00
Our results showed the weighting scheme giving beneficial results in batch studies did not do so with real users. ...
Do improvements in system performance demonstrated by batch evaluations conJbr the same benefit for real users? We carried out experiments designed to investigate this question. ...
Discussion Our experiments show that batch and user searching experiments do not give the same results. ...

Refining Recency Search Results with User Click Feedback
[article]
2011
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we focus on recency search and study a number of algorithms to improve ranking results by leveraging user click feedback. Our contributions are three-fold. ...
Second, we propose a re-ranking approach to improve search results for recency queries using user clicks. ...
Since the initial re-ranking function online(b,ws) is (almost) identical to the fixed one of batch(b), we can see from Figure 9 (a) that when the query appears around the 5th hour, batch(b) orders the ...

Static query result caching revisited
2008
Proceeding of the 17th international conference on World Wide Web - WWW '08
Query result caching is an important mechanism for search engine efficiency. In this study, we first review several query features that are used to determine the contents of a static result cache. ...
Experimental results show that this new feature achieves hit ratios better than those of the previously proposed features. ...
It is static in the sense that the cache is populated by the selected queries in batch mode and it is not modified until the next batch update. ...

Untangling Result List Refinement and Ranking Quality
2015
Proceedings of the 38th International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval - SIGIR '15
Traditional batch evaluation metrics assume that user interaction with search results is limited to scanning down a ranked list. ...
We develop an evaluation framework that takes a step beyond the interaction assumption of traditional evaluation metrics and allows for batch evaluation of systems with and without RLR elements. ...
underlying traditional batch-evaluation metrics do not apply. ...

An Online Learning Framework for Refining Recency Search Results with User Click Feedback
2012
ACM Transactions on Information Systems
Second, we propose an online learning approach that reranks and improves the search results for recency queries near real-time based on user clicks. ...
In this article, we focus on recency search and study a number of algorithms to improve ranking results by leveraging user click feedback. Our contributions are threefold. ...
To make our evaluation and online learning process closer to reality, we do not reveal user feedback c t,1 to the reranking algorithm immediately. ...

Semantic ranking and result visualization for life sciences publications

Finally, we evaluate the effectiveness of our ranking with a user study. t∈T L * (t). ...
We focus our attention on PubMed, the most significant bibliographic source in life sciences, and explore ways to use high-quality semantic annotations from the MeSH vocabulary to rank search results. ...
Many queries return thousands of results, and we cannot expect that the users will evaluate the quality of results exhaustively. ...

Partial results for online query processing
2002
Proceedings of the 2002 ACM SIGMOD international conference on Management of data - SIGMOD '02
The user can watch these partial results accumulate at the user interface, and accordingly refine the query by specifying their interest in different kinds of partial results. ...
Traditional query processors generate full, accurate query results, either in batch or in pipelined fashion. ...
But they do not give out query results incrementally, and do not adapt to dynamic volatilities or user preference changes. ...

We present several algorithms for the efficient computation of join results under several cost model assumptions. ...
The paper includes both the theoretical framework for stating such problem and the description of pragmatic solutions based on web service technology. ...
Of course, results are presented to users in ''batches'', as with conventional search engines, and most batches will not be computed unless the user interacts with the system asking for ''more'' results ...

We evaluate the proposed interface in an online user study, asking users to judge the explainability and assessability of the interface. ...
The idea is that search engines that indicate to the user why results are retrieved are valued higher by users and gain user trust. ...
