Hi Ofer, I think your best option is to boost the field for your category field during index time with Field.setBoost(floatBoost)
You will have to reindex your corpus however. Regards, Dan On 4/2/07, Ofer Nave <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I'd like to be able to boost documents at search-time, and I'm not sure how to do it. Example: I'm building a search engine for products (comparison shopping). Many queries tend to indicate a category (i.e., 'digital cameras') as opposed to a product (i.e., 'canon powershot'). I have the name of the category the product is in indexed in a separate field. My intention was to query both the title field and the category field, and when the category field relevancy is extremely high, boost the documents in that category. Is there a way to do this? Or an alternative approach to the problem? -ofer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
