Doron Cohen commented on LUCENE-1896: ------------------------------------- I kinda like the modification of queryNorm to get Weight as parameter. And I don't mind about it throwing an exception - besides being perhaps redundant, is it a real problem? But in any case, perhaps this part (modifying the API) belongs to a separate issue? Back to the original queryNorm discussion, thanks Mark and Hoss for the explanations - I just realized I did not fully understand the use of query norm. (Now I think I do, but I thought so too before this discussion.... :)) I am working on a patch to the large javadoc part in the top of Similarity - to show more tightly how the scoring formula described there today (which I think is accurate) evolves from VSM - something in the lines of Mark's description above. I hope to complete it over the weekend, and I hope the added text would also clear the confusion about the purpose and practice of the query norm. > Modify confusing javadoc for queryNorm > -------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1896 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1896 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Javadocs > Reporter: Jiri Kuhn > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.9 > > Attachments: LUCENE-1896.patch, queryNormAlternate.patch > > > See http://markmail.org/message/arai6silfiktwcer > The javadoc confuses me as well. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
