An information retrieval performance measure that is interpreted as the percent of perfect performance (PPP) can be used to study the effects of the inclusion of specific document features or feature classes or techniques in an information retrieval system. Using this, one can measure the relative quality of a new ranking algorithm, the result of incorporating specific types of metadata or folk...

in this study, the particleboard was made with rice husk and urea formaldehyde resin of 7, 8, 9 and 10 percent (based on dry weight of rice husk). to improve mechanism of bondability a definite amount of isocyanate resin is introduced to replace the same amount of urea formaldehyde resin. the effect of urea formaldehyde resin and diisocyanate content on bondability was evaluated by studying the...
