Evaluation of Ad-hoc Retrieval performance using the test split of the ClueWeb-09 Cat-B Topic descriptions dataset, measured by MAP, nDCG@20, and P@20.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Ad-hoc Retrieval |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | ClueWeb-09 Cat-B Topic descriptions (test) |
| Metric | MAP |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 17 of 17 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [MAP](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/ad-hoc-retrieval-on-clueweb-09-cat-b-topic-descriptions-test.md?metric=MAP>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [nDCG@20](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/ad-hoc-retrieval-on-clueweb-09-cat-b-topic-descriptions-test.md?metric=nDCG%4020>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [P@20](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/ad-hoc-retrieval-on-clueweb-09-cat-b-topic-descriptions-test.md?metric=P%4020>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.
