David Mark Nemeskey commented on LUCENE-3566:
---------------------------------------------

bq. i didnt think H1 took params (the thesis says 'Therefore, the constant of C 
is 1 assuming H1', then defines it without C). did the IB paper make a mistake?

Good question. Perhaps it was a mistake; however, according to my colleague, 
who had experimented with the IB method in our own engine and proposed to add 
the parameter to Lucene, a well chosen {{c}} can improve the results. Well, duh 
really; nevertheless, as long as we have defaults, shouldn't be a problem. :)

> The DFR normalizations {{H1}} and {{H2}} are parameter-free. This is in line 
> with the [original 
> article|http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.101.742], but 
> not with the [thesis|http://theses.gla.ac.uk/1570/], where H2 accepts a {{c}} 
> parameter, nor with [information-based 
> models|http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1835490], where H1 also accepts a 
> {{c}} parameter.
