Dear Nutch Staff,

 

I am using nutch to develop a search engine for a specific niche.

 

The system is running fine but I realized that might have some possible mistake with the Boolean query. Or maybe I am doing something wrong building it.

 

Executing the queries bellow, I noticed that the Boolean operator “OR” brings the same result of total matching documents as the operator “AND”.

 

DOG - (out of 872404 total matching documents)

CAT - (out of 818659 total matching documents)

DOG OR CAT - (out of 151041 total matching documents)

DOG AND CAT - (out of 151041 total matching documents)

 

I also checked the Yahoo Research Lab - Nutch Open Source Web Search Demo at http://research.yahoo.com/demo/nutch/search.xml?query=enterprise%2Bsearch, and I got the same behavior for the operator "OR".

 

Would you please let me know if this is my mistake building the query?

 

Thank you for your attention.

 

Best Regards,

Andrey
