[Corpora-List] Precision and Recall

[Afzal, Naveed]

Hi,

There is a good reference in the following book regarding evaluation (Precision and Recall) :

	Christopher D. Manning, Prabhakar Raghavan and Hinrich Schütze, Introduction to Information Retrieval, Cambridge University Press. 2008.

You can find the online slides of the book on the following link:
	http://www-csli.stanford.edu/~hinrich/information-retrieval-book.html

Hopefully this will help.

Hi all,

can anyone point me to a reference (possibly classic, or at least well-known) where I can find definitions of "precision" and "recall" as they are used in corpus linguistics studies?

Thanks in advance for any leads.

Federica
