  1. The correct answer is Redundant information. In information retrieval, **”noise”** refers to irrelevant or extraneous information that is retrieved along with the relevant information. This noise can make it harder to find the information you’re actually looking for. Redundant information, which is unnecessary or repetitive, contributes to this noise because it clutters search results with content that doesn’t add value or relevance to what you’re seeking.
    So, in this context, **redundant information** is the primary cause of noise in information retrieval.

    Hello, sir hope you are doing great, I want to listen to your opinion on Question 22’s answer. Thanks

    • Noise in Information Retrieval refers to irrelevant information that is returned in search results. It’s the opposite of relevant information, which is what the user is actually looking for.  

      Precision measures how many of the retrieved documents are actually relevant.  
      Recall measures how many of the relevant documents were retrieved.
      Redundant information is simply information that is repeated or unnecessary.
      Therefore, irrelevant information is the correct answer.

  2. I really appreciate your efforts and its really helpful thank you for your precious information

  3. Noise in communication means Redundant in information, but you have given wron answer ,which is precise
