Hello, I did notice several strange behaviors on queries. I would like to share with you an example, so maybe you can explain to me what is going wrong.
Using the following query : http://localhost:8983/solr/others/select/?debugQuery=true&q=anna%20lewis&rows=20&start=0&fl=*&qt=dismax I get back around 100 results. Follow the two first : <doc> <str name="id">Person:151</str> <str name="name_s">Victoria Davisson</str> </doc> <doc> <str name="id">Person:37</str> <str name="name_s">Anna Lewis</str> </doc> And the related debugs : 57.998047 = (MATCH) sum of: 0.048290744 = (MATCH) sum of: 0.024546575 = (MATCH) max plus 0.01 times others of: 0.024546575 = (MATCH) weight(text:anna^0.5 in 64288), product of: 0.027395602 = queryWeight(text:anna^0.5), product of: 0.5 = boost 5.734427 = idf(docFreq=564, numDocs=30400) 0.009554783 = queryNorm 0.8960042 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(text:anna in 64288), product of: 1.0 = tf(termFreq(text:anna)=1) 5.734427 = idf(docFreq=564, numDocs=30400) 0.15625 = fieldNorm(field=text, doc=64288) 0.02374417 = (MATCH) max plus 0.01 times others of: 0.02374417 = (MATCH) weight(text:lewi^0.5 in 64288), product of: 0.026944114 = queryWeight(text:lewi^0.5), product of: 0.5 = boost 5.6399217 = idf(docFreq=620, numDocs=30400) 0.009554783 = queryNorm 0.88123775 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(text:lewi in 64288), product of: 1.0 = tf(termFreq(text:lewi)=1) 5.6399217 = idf(docFreq=620, numDocs=30400) 0.15625 = fieldNorm(field=text, doc=64288) 57.949757 = (MATCH) FunctionQuery(ord(name_s)), product of: 1213.0 = ord(name_s)=1213 5.0 = boost 0.009554783 = queryNorm 5.006892 = (MATCH) sum of: 0.038405567 = (MATCH) sum of: 0.021955125 = (MATCH) max plus 0.01 times others of: 0.021955125 = (MATCH) weight(text:anna^0.5 in 62632), product of: 0.027395602 = queryWeight(text:anna^0.5), product of: 0.5 = boost 5.734427 = idf(docFreq=564, numDocs=30400) 0.009554783 = queryNorm 0.80141056 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(text:anna in 62632), product of: 2.236068 = tf(termFreq(text:anna)=5) 5.734427 = idf(docFreq=564, numDocs=30400) 0.0625 = fieldNorm(field=text, doc=62632) 0.016450444 = (MATCH) max plus 0.01 times others of: 0.016450444 = (MATCH) weight(text:lewi^0.5 in 62632), product of: 0.026944114 = queryWeight(text:lewi^0.5), product of: 0.5 = boost 5.6399217 = idf(docFreq=620, numDocs=30400) 0.009554783 = queryNorm 0.61053944 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(text:lewi in 62632), product of: 1.7320508 = tf(termFreq(text:lewi)=3) 5.6399217 = idf(docFreq=620, numDocs=30400) 0.0625 = fieldNorm(field=text, doc=62632) 4.968487 = (MATCH) FunctionQuery(ord(name_s)), product of: 104.0 = ord(name_s)=104 5.0 = boost 0.009554783 = queryNorm I'm using a simple boost function : <requestHandler name="dismax" class="solr.SearchHandler" > <lst name="defaults"> <str name="defType">dismax</str> <str name="echoParams">explicit</str> <float name="tie">0.01</float> <str name="qf"> text^0.5 name_s^5.0 </str> <str name="pf"> name_s^5.0 </str> <str name="bf"> name_s^5.0 </str> </lst> </requestHandler> Can anyone explain to me why the first result is on top (the query is 'anna lewis') with a huge weight and nothing related (it seems the weight come from the name_s field...) ? A second general question... is it possible to boost a field if the query match exactly the content of a field? Thank you !
