I am firing a query having terms- each associated with a boost factor. Some of the terms are having negative boost also (for negative boost I am using values between 0 and 1). The behaviour is that a document which has got more number of term matches, scores high, the coord() factor contributes to the scoring substantially. This happens even when terms with negative boosts are matched.
I am trying to implement a behaviour where the coord factor should only consider the terms with positive boost. How should I proceed?. I would like some pointers regarding from where should I start. I was just wondering whether this should be the default behaviour- that terms with negative boost should not contribute to coord factor. Removing the terms with negative boost from the query gives good results upto some extent; but for searches where terms with positive boost are totally absent, no results are returned. Thanks in advance Chandrakant K. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Terms-with-negative-boost-should-not-contribute-to-coord%28%29-tp24477758p24477758.html Sent from the Lucene - Java Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
