When running Project Validation, must you first specify the rank cutoff?

In the context of running Project Validation within Relativity, specifying the rank cutoff is indeed a requirement for the validation process. The rank cutoff is a critical parameter that helps in determining which documents are included in the validation sample based on their ranking scores. By setting this cutoff, you can ensure that the validation focuses on the most relevant and prioritized documents, allowing for a more effective assessment of the project's data and the accuracy of its predictive coding or analytics processes.

This requirement emphasizes the importance of having a well-defined scope for the validation to yield meaningful results. Without a specified cutoff, the validation could include documents that are less relevant or not representative of the intended dataset, potentially affecting the overall validity of the results and insights gained from the project. Thus, ensuring that this parameter is explicitly defined is essential for maintaining data integrity and reliability in the validation process.
