People usually prefer multiplicative boosting. But in your case you want 
additive boosting. Dismax's bf is additive. 

There is also _val_ hook. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrQuerySyntax

They can be defined in defaults section in request handler as well as via query 
parameters. q=test&pf=...&qf=...

Yes you can try different settings on the fly using query parameters.

Are there any best practices or preferred ways to accomplish what I am
trying? 

Do the params for defType, qf and bf belong in a solr request handler? 

Is it possible to have the weights as variables so they can be tweaked till
we find the optimum balance in showing our results?

Thanks!

Correct syntax of qf and pf is fieldName^boostFactor, i.e, 
qf=name^10 price^2

However your query is a word, so it won't match in price field. I assume price 
field is numeric. 

You can simulate sum(weight1*text relevance score, weight2 * price).
with bf parameter and FunctionQueries. 

q=red&defTypeedismax&qf=name&bf=product(price,w1/w2)

How to Create a weighted function (dismax or otherwise)

2011-06-28 Thread aster
I am trying to create a feature that allows search results to be displayed by
this formula sum(weight1*text relevance score, weight2 * price). weight1 and
weight2 are numeric values that can be changed to influence the search
results.

I am sending the following query params to the Solr instance for searching.

q=red
defType=dismax
qf=10^name+2^price

My understanding is that when using dismax, Solr/Lucene looks for the search
text in all the fields specified in the "qf" param.

Currently my search results are similar to those I get when "qf" does not
including a price. I think this is because price is a numeric field and
there is not text match.

Is it possible to rank search results based on this formula -
sum(weight1*text relevance score, weight2 * price).

Thanks!
