Alessandro Benedetti commented on LUCENE-8216: ---------------------------------------------- [~jim.ferenczi] thank you very much for your prompt response, it makes sense! > Better cross-field scoring > -------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-8216 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8216 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Adrien Grand > Assignee: Jim Ferenczi > Priority: Major > Fix For: 8.0 > > Attachments: LUCENE-8216.patch, LUCENE-8216.patch > > > I'd like Lucene to have better support for scoring across multiple fields. > Today we have BlendedTermQuery which tries to help there but it probably > tries to do too much on some aspects (handling cross-field term queries AND > synonyms) and too little on other ones (it tries to merge index-level > statistics, but not per-document statistics like tf and norm). > Maybe we could implement something like BM25F so that queries across multiple > fields would retain the benefits of BM25 like the fact that the impact of the > term frequency saturates quickly, which is not the case with BlendedTermQuery > if you have occurrences across many fields. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@lucene.apache.org
