John Wang commented on LUCENE-3364: ----------------------------------- Hi Robert: I see what you mean! This works well and would require no api change, sweet! I think all I am waiting for is LUCENE01536 because I would have a filter. Thanks -John > Add score threshold into Scorer.score() > --------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-3364 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3364 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: core/query/scoring > Reporter: John Wang > > This is an optimization for scoring. > Given a Scorer.score() implementation, where features are gathered to > calculate a score. > Proposal, add a parameter to score, e.g. score(float threshold) > This threshold is the minimum score to "beat" to make it to the current > PriorityQueue. This could potential save a great deal of wasted calculation > in the cases where recall is large. > In our case specifically, some of the features needed to do calculation can > be expensive to obtain, it would be nice to have a place to decide whether or > not even fetching these features are necessary. > Also, if we know the score would be low, simply threshold can be returned. > Let me know if this makes sense and I can work on a patch. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
