How to calculate Precision?

For a search, the precision is the ratio of the number of pertinent items found over the total number of items found.

$$\text{Precision}=\frac{|\{\text{Relevant items}\}\cap\{\text{Retrieved items}\}|}{|\{\text{Retrieved items}\}|}$$

Example: Consider the expected set: A,B,C,D,E (5 items), and the retrieved/found set : B,C,D,F (4 items). The set of expected items retrieved is B,C,D (3 common items). The precision is $$P = \frac{3}{4} = 75\%$$

How to calculate Recall?

The recall is the ratio of the number of pertinent items found over the total number of relevant items.

$$\text{Recall}=\frac{|\{\text{Relevant items}\}\cap\{\text{Retrieved items}\}|}{|\{\text{Relevant items}\}|}$$

Example: Consider the expected set: A,B,C,D,E (5 items), and the retrieved/found set : B,C,D,F (4 items). The set of expected items retrieved is B,C,D (3 common items). The recall is $$R = \frac{3}{5} = 60\%$$

How to calculate F-measure (F1 score)?

In statistics, F-measure (or F1 score) is the harmonic mean of precision $P$ and recall $R$

$$F = \frac{2 (P \times R)}{(P + R)}$$
