It is a booleanQuery that uses the boosting: I created a Similiarity class that returns the payload and I create the query using the following way: BooleanQuery bq = new BooleanQuery(); String[] splitWorlds = worlds.split(" "); for(int i = 0; i < splitWorlds.length; i++) { if(wordsWorldsFreqMap.getMap().get(word).get(Long.parseLong(splitWorlds[i])) != null) { double boost= wordsWorldsFreqMap.getMap().get(word).get(Long.parseLong(splitWorlds[i])); // gets the boost value from outside source BoostingTermQuery tq = new BoostingTermQuery(new Term(fieldName, splitWorlds[i])); tq.setBoost((float) boost); bq.add(tq, BooleanClause.Occur.SHOULD); } } Similarity: public class WordsSimilarity extends DefaultSimilarity { public WordsSimilarity() { } public float tf(float freq) { return super.tf(freq); // freq > 0 ? 1.0f : 0.0f; } public float scorePayload(byte[] payload, int offset, int length) { // if(length == 1) // { return payload[offset]; // } } public float scorePayload(String fieldName, byte[] payload, int offset, int length) { //Do nothing return payload[offset]; } } I use it since I want to give differnt weight for different terms.
