Wow, that was fast :-) Right, why haven't I came up with the idea on just sorting the results by importance... Lol...
OK, I will test both solutions and see what I like best. Such a great piece for software... -----Original Message----- From: Grant Ingersoll [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2006 5:26 PM To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: boosting results with a field from the index Hi Klaus, You might want to just set the boost value of the Document using your importance number, then Lucene will factor that in automatically when scoring. See the Document#setBoost javadoc for info. You could also sort on the field, I think, so that the more important docs come to the top. -Grant Klaus Hubert wrote: >Hi and a Happy New Year! > >I created a lucene index with 2 fields (text and importance). The text contains the real text and importance is a field where I manually give a number between 1 and 5 for the related document. When I search the index I find the documents with the highest revelancy weighted automatically by lucene. I'm just wondering if I can boost the results with the importance field I already have stored in the index. As I result I expect the same search results just weighted differently. Something like relevancy multiplied by importance. > >Thank you so much, > > Klaus > > >--------------------------------- >Yahoo! Photos > Ring in the New Year with Photo Calendars.
