Re: scoring individual values in a multivalued field

: unfortunately not possible. lengthNorm is part of fieldNorm and for each : doc there is one fieldNorm per field name... Thanks for the reply Chris, this solves part of my problem. I have explained my problem in much more detail in a separate thread (as it would have been out of context here).

Querying multivalued field - can scoring formula consider only matched values?

2008-10-07 Thread abhishek007
Hi, My application needs to handle synonyms for courses. The most natural way to achieve this would be having the field "course" to be multivalued. Now, say I add documents like: John Dane Algorithms Theory Computability, Complexity and Algorithms Mary Arriaga Algorithms for P

I hope I am in the right thread for my doubt, which is somewhat related to the ongoing discussion. I have seen that when we search in a multivaled field, the length normalization factor considers all values of the field, rather than considering only the matched field value. For example, if my doc
