XML information retrieval (XML-IR) systems search for relevant document fragments in XML documents for given queries. In top-ksearch, users control the size of output by an integerk. In XML-IR, however, each output element varies widely in size. Consequently, total output size of top-kelements is uncontrollable by simply giving an integerk. In addition, search results may have nesting elements. If a system orders result elements simply by their relevance, we may browse the same content more than once due to the nestings. To handle these problems, we propose a new ranking method that enables us to browse search results of XML-IR systems efficiently by introducing the concepts ofbenefitandreading effort. We also propose an evaluation metrics based onbenefitandreading effort, and compared the metrics with existing XML-IR metrics by experiments.
