There have been a number of major evaluations of the performance of retrieval systems against large full text and surrogate (bibliographic) databases. These evaluations have concentrated on the experimental determination of the Precision Ratio, the fraction of retrieved items that are relevant to an

The authors deal with problems of the evaluation or selection of testing methods for fuels. Signal/noise ratio, suggested by Taguchi', is shown to be a useful statistical criterion for the above purposes. This criterion is composed of two parts: one, the difference between different samples, and the
The ability to distinguish between acceptable and unacceptable levels of retrieval performance and the ability to distinguish between significant and non-significant differences between retrieval results are important to traditional information retrieval experiments. The Monte Carlo method is shown
