Query independent means that the threshold should have the same relevance for all queries and discard found docs below it. Current scoring implementation doesn't give guaranties that, say two documents found in two queries and which got the same score 0.5 are of the same quality.
I don't want discarding docs from being indexed, no. But I want to be sure that two docs with the same score in two different queries have the same quality (they contain the same set of found terms, lenght etc.) Alexander -----Original Message----- From: Andrzej Bialecki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: java-dev@lucene.apache.org Date: Thu, 07 Aug 2008 22:44:46 +0200 Subject: Re: lucene scoring Александр Аристов wrote: > I want implement searching with ability to set so-called a confidence > level below which I would treat documents as garbage.

I'm not sure if I understand it properly - if the level is query-independent, then it's a constant factor, which you can put in a field during the index creation - and then you could use a Filter or FunctionQuery to exclude documents with this factor below the threshold. -- Best regards, Andrzej Bialecki <>< ___. ___ ___ ___ _ _ __________________________________ [__ || __|__/|__||\/| Information Retrieval, Semantic Web ___|||__|| \| || | Embedded Unix, System Integration http://www.sigram.com Contact: info at sigram dot com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
