Abstract
Methods, systems and programming for predicting search results quality. In one example, a search query is received from a user. A plurality of search results are obtained from a content source based on the search query. The plurality of search results are ranked based on their relevance scores with respect to the search query. A distribution of the relevance scores of the plurality of search results is normalized in each position of the ranking. A metric of the content source is computed based on the normalized distribution of the relevance scores. The metric indicates a relevance between the plurality of search results and the search query.
