Comments on: Copying TREC is the Wrong Track for the Enterprise | The Noisy Channel http://lucene.grantingersoll.com/2009/05/18/copying-trec-is-the-wrong-track-for-the-enterprise-the-noisy-channel/ Thoughts on Apache Lucene, Mahout, Solr, Tika and Nutch Sat, 10 Sep 2011 20:15:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Daniel Tunkelang http://lucene.grantingersoll.com/2009/05/18/copying-trec-is-the-wrong-track-for-the-enterprise-the-noisy-channel/comment-page-1/#comment-6533 Daniel Tunkelang Tue, 19 May 2009 04:03:49 +0000 http://lucene.grantingersoll.com/?p=191#comment-6533 Grant, I'm sorry that the discussion is spread over so many posts. My post was a response to Otis, and has triggered a long comment thread. I wish there were a way to merge comment threads across multiple related posts. Anyway, as the historical records show, I'm not a fan of batch relevance testing at the query level. But I know that many people are, and it sounds like the ORP could serve as a Lucene-specific (and free) TREC, serving the needs of such people in the Lucene community. I wish you success in that endeavor, and I apologize if the cascade of extrapolations led to unnecessary confusion. Grant, I’m sorry that the discussion is spread over so many posts.
