Table 3.
A comparison of PRC and XPRC at five average precision (AP) levels determined by the PRC algorithm on the Genomics dataset. The cumulative article count is the number of articles with PRC AP below the given AP level. XPRC has better performance at all levels except for 1.0. p-value shows the significance of difference between PRC and XPRC at different AP levels.
