Re: Boosting on field empty or not
Just tested to make sure. queryNorm is changing after you add bq parameter. For example : 0.00317763 = queryNorm becomes 0.0028020076 = queryNorm. Since all scores are multiplied by this queryNorm factor, score of a document ( even if it is not effected/boosted by bq) changes. before &bq=SOURCE:Haberler^100 5.246903 4529806 EnSonHaber after &bq=SOURCE:Haberler^100 4.626675 4529806 EnSonHaber Does that makes sense? > > If the bq is only supposed apply the > > boost when the field value is greater > > than 0.01 why would trying another query make sure this > is > > working. > > > > Its applying the boost to all the fields, yes when the > boost > > is high enough > > most of documents with a value GT 0.01 show up first > however > > since it is > > applying the boost to all the documents sometimes > documents > > without a value > > in this field appear before those that do. > > If boosting is applied to all documents, then why result > order is changing? > > Sometimes documents without a value can show-up before > because there are other factors that contribute score > calculation. > > http://lucene.apache.org/core/3_6_0/api/all/org/apache/lucene/search/Similarity.html > > If you add &debugQuery=on, you can see detailed > explanation about how calculation is done. >

If boosting is applied to all documents, then why result order is changing? Sometimes documents without a value can show-up before because there are other factors that contribute score calculation. http://lucene.apache.org/core/3_6_0/api/all/org/apache/lucene/search/Similarity.html If you add &debugQuery=on, you can see detailed explanation about how calculation is done.
Re: Boosting on field empty or not
If the bq is only supposed apply the boost when the field value is greater than 0.01 why would trying another query make sure this is working. Its applying the boost to all the fields, yes when the boost is high enough most of documents with a value GT 0.01 show up first however since it is applying the boost to all the documents sometimes documents without a value in this field appear before those that do.

Re: Boosting on field empty or not
Let's go back to this step where things look correct, but we ran into the edismax bug which requires that you put a space between each left parenthesis and field name. First, verify that you are using edismax or not. Then, change: &q=chairs AND (regularprice:*^5 OR (*:* -regularprice:*)^0.5)&sort=score desc to &q=chairs AND ( regularprice:*^5 OR ( *:* -regularprice:*)^0.5)&sort=score desc (Note the space after each "(".) And make sure to uuencode your spaces as "+" or "%20". Also, try this to verify whether you really have chairs without prices: &q=chairs AND ( *:* -regularprice:*)&sort=score desc (Note that space after "(".) And for sanity, try this as well: &q=chairs AND ( -regularprice:*)&sort=score desc (Again, note that space after "(".) Those two queries should give identical results. Finally, technically you should be able to use "*" or "[* TO *]" to match all values or negate them to match all documents without a value in a field, but try both to see that they do return the identical set of documents. -- Jack Krupansky -Original Message- From: Donald Organ Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 4:19 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Boosting on field empty or not &q=chairs AND (regularprice:*^5 OR (*:* -regularprice:*)^0.5)&sort=score desc Same effect.

How do you feed your documents to solr? My be you are indexing empty string? Is your field indexed="true"? http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrQuerySyntax#Differences_From_Lucene_Query_Parser "-field:[* TO *] finds all documents without a value for field" Another approach is to use default="SOMETHING" in your field definition. (schema.xml) Then you can use field:SOMETHING to retrieve empty fields. +*:* -field:SOMETHING retrieves non-empty documents.

Hi Donald, Since you are using edismax, it is better to use bq (boosting query) for this. bq=reqularprice:[* TO *]^50 http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DisMaxQParserPlugin#bq_.28Boost_Query.29 defType=edismax&qf=nameSuggest^10 name^10 codeTXT^2 description^1 brand_search^0 cat_search^10&q=chairs&bq=reqularprice:[* TO *]^50
Re: Boosting on field empty or not
Reading more closely, I see that there is a workaround: add a space after any left parenthesis.

"(*:* -regularprice:*)5" should be "(*:* -regularprice:*)^0.5" - the missing boost operator. -- Jack Krupansky -Original Message- From: Donald Organ Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 3:31 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Boosting on field empty or not Still doesnt appear to be working.
