Retrieval evaluation: measuring search

Retrieval can be measured on its own, before any answer is generated.

Outline
This lesson is an outline of what it will teach. The full lesson, with code you can run, is being written.

What this lesson covers

  • Questions with known correct documents
  • Recall and precision in plain terms
  • Comparing two pipelines

Why it matters

If retrieval misses the right document, no prompt can fix the answer.

This is what real progress feels like.
