Grant Ingersoll commented on SOLR-2010:
---------------------------------------
Hi James,
First off, good work. I like the overall design, etc.
Second, this patch no longer applies cleanly to trunk. The issue is in the
SearchHandler.
Third, in thinking some more about the whole distributed case, perhaps we are
approaching this wrong. I was originally thinking that we would have to go off
and re-query all the shards (as in send another message) but we really
shouldn't have to do that, right? Why can't we just pass the collation request
through to the shards as part of the get suggestions and then it can, if
collation is asked for, return it's collation suggestions. Then, the question
becomes how to merge the suggestions and pick the best one. This should save a
round trip at the cost of doing some extra collations, but since most people
aren't going to ask for more than 5 or 10, it shouldn't be an issue.

> Improvements to SpellCheckComponent Collate functionality
> Our project requires a better Spell Check Collator. I'm contributing this as
> a patch to get suggestions for improvements and in case there is a broader
> need for these features.
> 1. Only return collations that are guaranteed to result in hits if re-queried
> (applying original fq params also). This is especially helpful when there is
> more than one correction per query. The 1.4 behavior does not verify that a
> particular combination will actually return hits.
> 2. Provide the option to get multiple collation suggestions
> 3. Provide extended collation results including the # of hits re-querying
> will return and a breakdown of each misspelled word and its correction.
> This patch is similar to what is described in SOLR-507 item #1. Also, this
> patch provides a viable workaround for the problem discussed in SOLR-1074. A
> dictionary could be created that combines the terms from the multiple fields.
> The collator then would prune out any spurious suggestions this would cause.
> This patch adds the following spellcheck parameters:
> 1. spellcheck.maxCollationTries - maximum # of collation possibilities to try
> before giving up. Lower values ensure better performance. Higher values may
> be necessary to find a collation that can return results. Default is 0,
> which maintains backwards-compatible behavior (do not check collations).
> 2. spellcheck.maxCollations - maximum # of collations to return. Default is
> 1, which maintains backwards-compatible behavior.
> 3. spellcheck.collateExtendedResult - if true, returns an expanded response
> format detailing collations found. default is false, which maintains
> backwards-compatible behavior. When true, output is like this (in context):
> <lst name="spellcheck">
> <lst name="suggestions">
> <lst name="hopq">
> <int name="numFound">94</int>
> <int name="startOffset">7</int>
> <int name="endOffset">11</int>
> <arr name="suggestion">
> <str>hope</str>
> <str>how</str>
> <str>hope</str>
> <str>chops</str>
> <str>hoped</str>
> etc
> </arr>
> <lst name="faill">
> <int name="numFound">100</int>
> <int name="startOffset">16</int>
> <int name="endOffset">21</int>
> <arr name="suggestion">
> <str>fall</str>
> <str>fails</str>
> <str>fail</str>
> <str>fill</str>
> <str>faith</str>
> <str>all</str>
> etc
> </arr>
> </lst>
> <lst name="collation">
> <str name="collationQuery">Title:(how AND fails)</str>
> <int name="hits">2</int>
> <lst name="misspellingsAndCorrections">
> <str name="hopq">how</str>
> <str name="faill">fails</str>
> </lst>
> </lst>
> <lst name="collation">
> <str name="collationQuery">Title:(hope AND faith)</str>
> <int name="hits">2</int>
> <lst name="misspellingsAndCorrections">
> <str name="hopq">hope</str>
> <str name="faill">faith</str>
> </lst>
> </lst>
> <lst name="collation">
> <str name="collationQuery">Title:(chops AND all)</str>
> <int name="hits">1</int>
> <lst name="misspellingsAndCorrections">
> <str name="hopq">chops</str>
> <str name="faill">all</str>
> </lst>
> </lst>
> </lst>
> </lst>
> In addition, SOLRJ is updated to include
> SpellCheckResponse.getCollatedResults(), which will return the expanded
> Collation format. getCollatedResult(), which returns a single String, is
> retained for backwards-compatibility. Other APIs were not changed but will
> still work provided that spellcheck.collateExtendedResult is false.
> This likely will not return valid results if using Shards. Rather, a more
> robust interaction with the index would be necessary than what exists in
> SpellCheckCollator.collate().
