Additional Relevance Assessment for TREC Medical Records Track
We are making publicly available a set of additional relevance assessments (qrels) for the TREC Medical Records Track. These are in additional to the officials qrels for this task provided by TREC organisers. The qrels are for the same set TREC query topics but are assessments for an additional 950 documents not previously judged by TREC assessors. As with TREC, the assessments were conducted by medical professionals.
Full details about how the assessments were obtained is available in Chapter 7 of:

Input:
1.results, 2,results, qrel
Output:
Both results file annotated with i) '*' to indicate relevance ii) the position of the
document as [x,y] where x = pos in 1.results and y = pos in 2.results.
plot_eval
