Hello everybody, this is what I would like to do: I have an index with documents containing a field 'authors'. I would like to find all documents that have authors similar to a given author-string. One could do this by a special query, relying on lucenes scoring/ranking mechanism. But I would like to do it different: I want to use my own similarity implementation, one that is based on regular expressions for example. An example is that this author string "Arthur Gabriel, Peter Davis and Kate Janeway " is equal (highest possible similarity) to this one "A. Gabriel & P. Davis & K. Janeway".
Is there a way doing things like this in lucene? To give a similarity implementation completely different (e.g. based on regular expressions) than lucenes scoring function? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
