Arcadius Ahouansou commented on LUCENE-6939:
--------------------------------------------

Hello  [~erickerickson]

I can see you have updated the wiki with {{linear}}->{{position_linear}} and 
{{reciprocal}}->{{position_reciprocal}} 

Thank you very much for that  [~erickerickson] 

We need a new bullet point for the new blenderType, just below 
{{position_reciprocal}} at the same level: 

{quote}
{{position_exponential_reciprocal}}:  weightFieldValue/Math.pow(1+position, 
exponent). This is a more aggressive and more configurable version of the 
{{position_reciprocal}} with a configurable variable {{exponent}}. When 
{{exponent}}==1.0, then both {{position_exponential_reciprocal}} and 
{{position_reciprocal}} are equivalent and lead to the same result. 

{quote}

Then, we will need a new bullet point outside of the BlenderType and just above 
numFactor:
{quote}
{{exponent}}: an optional configuration variable for the 
{{position_exponential_reciprocal}} blenderType. It is a decimal number used to 
control how fast the score will grow or decrease. Its default value 2.0
{quote}

Many thanks

> The orignal BlendedInfixSuggester introduced in LUCENE-5354 has support for:
> - {{BlenderType.POSITION_LINEAR}} and 
> - {{BlenderType.POSITION_RECIPROCAL}} .
> These are used to score documents based on the position of the matched token 
> i.e the closer is the matched term to the beginning, the higher score you get.
> In some use cases, we need a more aggressive scoring based on the position.
> That's where the exponential reciprocal comes into play 
> i.e 
> {{coef = 1/Math.pow(position+1, exponent)}}
> where the {{exponent}} is a configurable variable.
