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 document is like: <document> <field name="author">John Hennessy</field> <field name="author">David Patterson</field> </document> and my query string is "Hennessy", the length normalization factor considers all 4 tokens as in "John", "Hennessy", "David", "Patterson". This is similar to the score if my field was like: <field name="author">John Hennessy David Patterson</field> I want the score to consider only that field value with any matches (here, "John Hennessy").
