Jim Ferenczi commented on LUCENE-8196:
--------------------------------------
+1 too, there are some places where you could initialize the current interval
with[−∞ . . −∞] in order to avoid the nullity check.
Most of the operators algorithm seem good, though I don't understand why you
change the order of the disjunction ? If you don't start with the smallest
right interval from the queue you could miss a lot of minimum intervals that
could be needed if the disjunction is used inside another operator ?

> This ticket proposes an alternative implementation of the SpanQuery family
> that uses minimum-interval semantics from
> [http://vigna.di.unimi.it/ftp/papers/EfficientAlgorithmsMinimalIntervalSemantics.pdf]
> to implement positional queries across term-based fields. Rather than using
> TermQueries to construct the interval operators, as in LUCENE-2878 or the
> current Spans implementation, we instead use a new IntervalsSource object,
> which will produce IntervalIterators over a particular segment and field.
> These are constructed using various static helper methods, and can then be
> passed to a new IntervalQuery which will return documents that contain one or
> more intervals so defined.
