Cranfield Evaluation Paradigm
The Cranfield evaluation paradigm is the foundational experimental design for measuring how well an information retrieval system finds relevant documents. Devised by Cyril Cleverdon at the College of Aeronautics in Cranfield during the 1960s, it fixes three ingredients — a document collection, a set of search requests, and human relevance judgments linking requests to documents — and then holds them constant so that competing indexing methods or retrieval algorithms can be compared on recall and precision under controlled, repeatable conditions. By abstracting evaluation away from any single live user and turning it into a reusable laboratory experiment, Cranfield made retrieval effectiveness a measurable quantity and supplied the template that every later large-scale campaign, including TREC, has built upon.
