Talk:Precision and recall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Merger proposal

I am suggesting that the Precision (information retrieval) and Recall (information retrieval) be merged into this article. A similar movement between sensitivity and specificity is being discussed at Talk:Sensitivity_and_specificity#Merger_proposal, and it seems like the consensus is heading toward a merger.

I absolutely agree. We just went through a similar debate at Talk:Relevance (information retrieval) and I'm happy with how we redirect discussion of performance measures to Information retrieval#Performance_measures, which in turn points to this entry. Dtunkelang (talk) 04:53, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
