Abstract :
The main concepts of different evaluation forum are to promote the evaluation of information retrieval systems by providing large test collections of structured documents. There are various forum that are working and providing training data in the evaluation of search engines. In the better evaluation of search engines, various important evaluative measures have been used, they are popular statistical measures and automatic approaches which includes Vector space model(VSM), Okapi similarity measure and Cover density ranking(CDR) that have previously been used to evaluate the search engines performance. In this paper, our work intends to discuss the main aspects of various forums and an evaluative measures used in performance evaluation of search engines and provides a comprehensive comparison for statistical methods and automatic methods.
