Search Quality Evaluation: a Developer Perspective
Search quality evaluation is an ever-green topic every search engineer ordinarily struggles with. Improving the correctness and effectiveness of a search system requires a set of tools which help measuring the direction where the system is going.
The slides will focus on how a search quality evaluation tool can be seen under a practical developer perspective, how it could be used for producing a deliverable artifact and how it could be integrated within a continuous integration infrastructure.
