hi, I'm looking through the list archives and the documentation on boost queries, and I don't see anything that matches this case.
I have an index of documents, some of which are very similar but not identical. Therefore the scores are very close and the ordering is affected by somewhat arbitrary factors. When I do a query the similar documents come up close together, so that's a good start. Each document has a multivalued field, with 1-n values in it (as many as 20). The actual values don't matter to me, but the number of values is a rough proxy for the quality of a record. I'd like to apply a very small boost based on the number of values in that field, so that among a set of similar documents the ones with more values will score higher and sort ahead of those with less values. Is there currently a function or set of functions that can be applied to this use case? Or a place where I could build and contribute something? In that case I'd look for a starting point on where to look. thanks, Eric -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Boosting-based-on-number-of-values-in-multiValued-field--tp21377250p21377250.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
