Information retrieval

an effectiveness metric that models a user who moves from each result to the next with a fixed persistence probability, weighting relevance by that geometric decay.

In information retrieval, rank-biased precision refers to an effectiveness metric that models a user who moves from each result to the next with a fixed persistence probability, weighting relevance by that geometric decay. This meaning comes from Moffat (2008) in ACM Transactions on Information Systems.[1]
